This is Part 3 of our series of blog posts on chimpanzee identification. (See Annie’s and Burrito’s posts by clicking on their names.)

Most people can identify Foxie right away because she’s very rarely without at least one of her favorite dolls:

But there are other ways of identifying Foxie. She often walks with a rounded back:

You can also tell Foxie by her size. She’s very petite. Here you can see her next to Negra:

and next to Jody and Jamie:

And just for fun, see if you can spot one of my favorite Foxie quirks in the photos below.

    That second picture of Foxie is one of my favorite pictures ever! 🙂

      I’ll second that! The picture captures Foxie’s joy and love for the trolls, and that certain amazement that she can’t quite believe she has such wonderful little beings to have with her all the time! Of course she’s not alone, not just a few human troll collectors feel much the same I think I can say, but we’re just not nearly as cute about it 🙂

    Foxie has her Bronx Salute down pat.
