Everyone seems to be getting into the holiday spirit as we get closer and closer to the new year, and Tchimpounga’s chimpanzees are no exception!
Young chimpanzees absolutely love fresh fruit and bottles of milk, so staff at our Tchimpounga sanctuary in the Republic of Congo decided to have a bit of holiday fun and give these items to the sanctuary’s youngest chimpanzees as gifts. As you will see in the video, that chimpanzees were very intrigued by the crinkly wrapping paper and shiny long ribbons … some seemed to be more interested in the boxes themselves rather than what was inside the boxes!
We hope you enjoy the video above, which features these young chimpanzees as well as many of Tchimpounga’s rescued mandrills, older chimps that have been moves to Tchimpounga’s island sanctuary sites, and a very special holiday message from Dr. Jane Goodall.
