The thing about Burrito is… everyone loves him, chimps and humans alike. Burrito’s light-hearted nature and playful energy is hard not to be contagious. Though at times his group does need him to settle down, they all love to play and interact with him. I mean who wouldn’t, just look at him!

A bonus photo of Jamie the fashionista:

    That hat really does not go with Jamie’s personality, lol!

    Oh, my what a pant hoot watching Burrito and lady Jamie cavorting and having such damn good fun! Goofy and adorable and yes, I can see why everyone just loves Burrito with his charm and good nature. I also loved jamie’s beanie hat; very sassy and creative. Thanks for sharing this uplifting blog.

    I love watching Burrito and Jamie just be absolutely silly together. Who can resist Bubba’s playful charm? Even Jamie needs to let loose now and again.
    Also love the pic of Jamie in her hat (while building a nest/fort)! She’s such a fashionista.

    The world needs more playful spirits. Long live Burrito getting us through good times and bad. What a HOOT.

    You’re right: Everyone loves Burrito. He was the first chimpanzee at CSNW that I laid eyes upon, and I was immediately smitten. Then I saw Jamie’s piercing amber eyes on her beautiful face and I fell in love some more. All these years later, Bubs and the Boss and their friends and neighbors continue to endear themselves.

      Bubba and The Boss sounds like a sitcom!

    One of my many favorite things is seeing Jamie and Burrito goofing off. It’s a joy to watch! Jamie never lets go of her green cup and held on tight to whatever she had tucked in her pelvic pocket. Loved the Burrito photos!! He is just too stinking cute. But the last photo of Jamie in that hat—get out! That’s hysterical! I don’t think I have ever seen one the chimps wearing a hat before. Jamie wears it well.

    Of course I loved seeing these two in action–but I also enjoyed hearing those breathy laughs!
