Amy

Amy2 July 2021

Amy is such an energetic young chimp! She loves to play, both with her caregivers as well as her best friends Sarah and Loretta. Whenever they get new stuffed animal “babies”, you can usually bet that one of them will have it in their possession, and they typically rotate between the three of them on whose turn it is to play with the doll next. Often, she will run up to a caregiver with a very enthusiastic play stomp then go flying across the room expecting a game of chase. Amy can also be a bit on the dramatic side, taking on some of the older and more dominant chimps in her group. She is definitely an instigator and likes to stir up trouble when things seem too calm and quiet. For being one of the smallest chimps in her group, it can be quite a sight to see her trying to rile up the biggest male, Kareem. We are enjoying seeing her grow into quite a brave and rambunctious youngster.

This project would not be possible without our many generous individual supporters and volunteers. We rely on donations to fulfill our mission, including caring for our existing residents and expanding the sanctuary to accommodate those chimpanzees still waiting in the lab.
