Thank you, Cheyenne, Cobby, Minnie and Maggie and the San Francisco Zoo Primate Team!
October 4, 2016 by Katelyn -
Today’s day of sanctuary was sponsored by Cheyenne Coles, chimpanzees Cobby, Minnie, and Maggie, and the humans of the San Francisco Zoo Primate Team in honor of Great Apes Giving Day! Cobby, Minnie and Maggie are three really gorgeous chimpanzee people who reside at the San Francisco Zoo. Cheyenne shared this lovely message about today:
“Thank you so much for the work that you do!! Our staff enjoys reading your beautiful blog and utilizing your impressive enrichment database to create items for our own apes (and monkeys). You are a true inspiration for what great chimp care looks like. Thank you for rescuing, rehabilitating, and caring for the Cle Elum Seven with the respect and love they deserve. Today we honor you all!! Love, ~ The SF Zoo Primate Team and Chimps Cobby, Minnie & Maggie”
Cheyenne, Cobby, Minnie, Maggie and all of the primates at the San Francisco Zoo, thank you so much for such a gracious gift for the chimps! We are really touched by your sweet and generous sponsorship and honored that you would think of Annie, Missy, Jamie, Jody, Burrito, Foxie and Negra today. We’re so happy to hear you have been able to utilize our enrichment database for the apes and monkeys you care for! Thank you for all you do to care for your primate family. We are thinking of them all today and wish them the same days filled with the love, care, comfort and joy the Cle Elum Seven are so fortunate to receive thanks to supporters like you. Learn more about Cobby, Minnie, and Maggie and plans to improve and expand their home here.

Today is officially Great Apes Giving Day! If you’ve already given, thank you SO much!! And if you haven’t had a chance yet you have until 9:00 pm (PT) to participate and support Missy and her family’s second chance! There are so many wonderful organizations caring for so many amazing beings and your support, in every size and shape, makes a difference (and this year African organizations are also included)! Thank you for your kind and compassionate hearts and all you make possible for these very special beings!

What a perfect post to read! Two Chimp Families I Love coming together <3 I've been following the Cle Elum Seven for many years. They are very special to me. I was lucky to provide Enrichment toys used for Annies Birthday a few years ago. CSNW is a place I'd model my own Chimp Sanctuary after if I ever win the lotto! The San Francisco Zoo Chimps have had a piece of my heart my whole life. They have lived there almost fifty years, so as an SF Native I grew up visiting them. I'm thankful they are a part if my life. Their security was threatened last year when the Zoo Director tried to kick them out. Thankfully that move was halted and these these precious babies are safe in the only home they have known. Bless all of you at CSNW for the love and security you give your precious seven babies everyday.
