You saw the photos last week of the chimps’ first holiday celebration of the season. We saved the video from the party, and J.B. put together this video just for you:

    It makes me so happy to see them having such fun grabbing their treats. I can’t imagine which one took the doll. The photos of all of them at the end are just wonderful.

    Running off with all the gifts you can possibly hold sure made my day. Had to laugh at that one. Great video

    This was THE best, made my day!! What an ending too. Who was hobbling off with all the packages? Was that Missy? Hysterical. (Hope she was hobbling off because of the heavy load she was carrying and not because of an injury.) And that is a beautiful photo Annie at the end.

    Happy Christmas to you all! You don’t need the excuse of the holidays to spread cheer. You spread cheer every single day of the year. Thank you for all the joy you bring me while showing us all the joy and love you give to Missy, Annie, Jody, Jamie, Burrito, Foxie and Negra.

      Merry Christmas to everyone at the Sanctuary – all the wonderful chimps and the wonderful staff that takes care of them. Thank so much for the video! It was amazing to seem working on the Christmas trees! :-))

    That was Jody taking off with her stash of packages, and, yes, her awkward gait was because of her armload of goods.

    Happy Christmas to you, Kathleen! Thank you for celebrating the chimpanzees everyday.
