We love a good excuse to throw the chimpanzees a forage party. Happy St. Patrick’s Day everyone!

    It appears that various pots o’ gold at the end of the proverbial (green) rainbow have been found and savored by the likes of Maeve and Burrit O’Chimpanzee. I am pleased that my chimpanzee and cattle friends can celebrate the feast of the patron saint of engineers, lawyers, Nigeria, and as demonstrated on some island in the North Atlantic (one assumes that Annie’s hair and ears will perk up in appreciation), reptile removal and relocation.

      And I trust that Gord O’Chimpanzee also enjoyed today’s festivites.

    Hi, Anna!
    I can almost hear Willie B’s teeth clacking on that cabbage now!
    What was the crumbly stuff served with their beets and cabbage? Did they actually get soda bread?

      Was it quinoa?

    I think Maeve’s photo is the most authentic for a drunken Irishman that just blew it out at her own party. :rofl:

    Look at Dora, she has Pot O’Goldust all over her. Burrito! He has gold dust all over his lips. Sweet Lucky has gold dust sprinkled on her lettuce. You guys really know how to throw a St. Paddy’s Day party. Sláinte to everyone!

    Awesome pictures!! Having done photography of the chimps at another place, I know how
    hard it is to get their cooperation for longer than a few seconds!! Of course, bribery helps!!
