Gorgeous Day
April 29, 2018 by Kelsi -
Today was a gorgeous day. The sun was shining, the wind was blowing, and the barn doors were open! Words could not describe the day we had, but pictures can!
This photo was actually from last week but Jamie just looks so good I coudn’t resist:
Jamie and I sauntered around Young’s Hill mid morning and afternoon:
Annie made bird noises and relaxed all day in the Greenhouse:
Missy looking fierce:
Foxie enjoyed some carrots and chow:
Jamie had lunch with her boot and was skeptical about the broccoli… (However, she did like it):
Burrito:
Negra and Jody spent their day napping in the greenhouse and a little in the Playroom. While napping in the Playroom, I did preform a jig for Neggie while she laid in the sun. Too bad there is no video to show how much she enjoyed the show…
Jody napping:

Every photo absolutely wonderful, thank you. Would love to have seen you dancing for Negra as well as Negra enjoying your dancing. Tickles me that Negra enjoys watching you dance for her.
These pictures always make my day. Hoots and XXs to all at CSW.
Happy Birthday and thank you Meg for introducing me to the Knoxville chimp family. After reading articles on Debbie’s passing I was deeply touched by her life. She was an amazing ambassador. What a devastating loss to everyone. I came across this lovely quote:
“Debbie taught us so many things about chimpanzees. Her legacy as an ambassador for her species lies in her own story about the illicit pet trade and the ethics of isolating chimpanzees for entertainment,” said Zoo Knoxville President and CEO Lisa New. “For me personally, Debbie was the most important and influential animal I have ever known. But Debbie was more than just a teacher. She was my friend.”
It is inexplicable how deeply chimpanzees weave their beautiful hearts into our lives. Always a joy to discover new chimps.
