    A day full of merriment, food, cozy nests, and a lone almost overlooked juicy cranberry — what could be better. Plus Burrito scored the Piñata! Seeing the chimps (and Ellie and the cows) enjoying their Christmas party was one of my favorite gifts of the day. Thanks!

    “Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist”. He exists at CSNW. Thank you for devoting your hearts and time to ensure the chimps have a wonderful holiday celebration.

    Merry Christmas to all! XOXO

    I always look forward to the day-after photos and videos of holiday parties and this one was exceptionally delightful. Love how they even appreciate the decorations. Jamie lining up her bbed with all her goodies, even pulling the real Christmas tree closer to her bed, brought a big smile to my face. She even looked inside her boot to see if more treats were inside. What a great video.

    Every day the presence of the chimpanzees, the cattle, and Ellie are such a blessing. I love them so much.

      And, once again this Christmas morning, I notice that Negra is administering a royal
      (if consensual and otherwise mutually edifying) pushing of Burrito’s head into the floor. A hollowed yuletide tradition at CSNW, I infer.

        Oh Tobin, you crack me up. I was giggling over the Head-Push game myself.
