It may be a scorcher outside, but Missy is as cool as ever. She just has that “one of the cool people” vibe about her, don’t you think?

    Okay Diana, how did you ever capture Missy in 6 relaxing cool as a cumber photos!? Can’t imagine her standing still and relaxing for so many photos!! But oh yes, Missy is THE coolest, and it doesn’t matter if she relaxing or on the move! She is beautiful, isn’t she?

      Well, it’s possible that the heat created some more downtime for Missy. I agree – she’s so beautiful. I love that she’s such a free-spirit in spite of her confinement, and that she can know express that more than before.

    Wonderful photos of Missy. I will never forget when the door opened to the hill for the first time and off she went to climb bamboo. Imagine the challenges of a wild chimp being in a cage and a bio-medical subject for decades? She is a special chimp, very loyal to her best friend Annie. She can trust humans for the first time in her life. No wonder she looks so calm and self assured. She has a heart of gold and an intellect that knows just how lucky she is to be where she is. She is as free as the wind for the first time in her life and has no stress of confinement. The world is hers.
