It’s another scorcher of a day here at Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest. The chimpanzees have been taking it in stride though by lounging during the heat of the day with various enrichment in hand (or mouth).

Jody playing with a plastic toy while wearing a sock:

Although Annie didn’t have a piece of enrichment with her as she lounged on the catwalk bridge, she certainly seemed to be enjoying the relaxation time:

And Missy decided to stay out of camera view as she snuggled up in her blanket nest.

    Looks and sounds a lot like me today, it was up close to 100 degrees here in South Carolina today too.

    They are all so beautiful! They make me smile every time I see them. Glad they had another fun, peaceful and relaxing day 🙂
