Lindsey

Lindsay July 2021

Lindsey not only holds one of the highest ranks in her social group but also fulfills a vital role as the enforcer and peacemaker. Despite 25 years in research labs, Lindsey embodies wisdom, stoicism and playfulness, making her a beloved figure among her fellow chimps and caregivers alike.

Her role as the enforcer within her social group showcases her remarkable sense of fairness and justice. While she maintains harmonious relationships with everyone, she takes swift action when others stray from the group’s social norms. With a keen eye for potential conflicts, Lindsey steps in to reprimand those who may get out of line, ensuring that peace is restored as quickly as possible. Her ability to navigate the complexities of social dynamics with such finesse is a testament to her years of experience and innate understanding of chimpanzee behavior.
