A few more photos from Thanksgiving day at Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest…

Jody enjoyed the sweet potatoes:

Burrito tried to get every last bite of cranberries out of his cup and ended up coloring his face red:

Negra ate her Field Roast Grain Meat in the comfort of a nest:

Speaking of nests, the chimps made some nice ones after their big meal:

Annie was the big winner of the day. She was the only one who noticed that there were nuts and seeds in the decorations, so she quietly gathered them all before anyone else caught on. She also got the Thanksgiving pinata.

You know how can you tell when Foxie is happy with her food? She rubs her toes together.

It’s not hard to tell when Missy is having fun:

    I love the Foxie toe-rub. Is that like rubbing your hands together in anticipation or is that like an obsessive little twitch of excitement?

      I would say it’s more like the latter. She tends to do it when she’s drinking smoothie in the morning. She’ll blow raspberries and make funny faces at us until we give her another turn, and then she’ll savor the smoothie while rubbing her toes together.
