Negra’s lips

One of my favorite blog posts is one that J.B. posted about the stages of Negra’s lips drooping. I think her heavy lips are one of her more endearing qualities, wouldn’t you agree?

    When I see these pictures, I always wonder what they’re thinking about. These thoughts looks pretty serious. The photo sequence starting from fighting to making up is priceless, too.

    The chimps have such wonderful expressive faces. Negra looks so serious, and I would love to know what she is thinking.

    How do I put into words the flutter, pang I feel in my heart when I see Negra! Marilyn Monroe’s lips were iconic and so are Negra’s. Love these photos and J.B.’s post from last year had me chuckling! Too funny.

    I too love Nega.

    TO THINK A FEW YEARS AGO, ALL SEVEN CHIMPS WERE UNKNOWNS, AND HIDDEN AND ANONYMOUS,
    NO ONE EVEN KNEW NEGRA EXISTED,
    HOWEVER TODAY THESE SEVEN DARLING ARE KNOWN AND REVERED WORLD WIDE,
    WOW, SUCH DIFFERENCE SANCTUARY LIFE MAKES
    TODAY, MANY LOVE NEGRA, –
    I ABSOLUTELY ADORE HER –
    I LOVE AND CARE SO MUCH ABOUT NEGRA,-
    I HAVE TO REALLY BUDGET IN ORDER TO SEND HER 25LBS PEANUTS FROM OF NUTS,COM-
    BUT ITS WORTH EVERY CENT TO ME, –
    I HOPE OTHERS CAN ALSO DO THE SAME- TO KEEP OUR ROYAL HIGHNESS IN THE FLAVOURS AND TASTES THAT SHE HAS BECOME SO ACCUSTOMED TO,
    I LOVE YOU NEGRA,
    SENDING YOU, YOUR FAVE FOOD. . . IS WHAT MAKES YOU TICK,
