At Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest, Missy has merited the nickname “Dr. Missy.” We call her this because she is a particularly diligent groomer, spending hours attending to her group mates. If someone has sustained an injury, she focuses on that member with all her carefully well-honed skills. For the average day, Dr. Missy is always prepared to perform a gentle grooming examination.

    GREAT photos! Looks like Dr. Missy is listening to her patient tell her what’s wrong. 🙂

    This is yet another endearing quality of Missy’s. (Hard to imagine her standing still long enough to groom.)
