Who's Who in Dorothy Jo & Tilly Villa?
About This Group
Dorothy Jo and Tilly Villa (DJT) was made possible by the DJ&T Foundation and named for Bob Barker’s wife and mother, both of whom loved all animals. The group is led by alpha Patrick, who looks out for his groupmates while taking a laid-back approach to leadership. You may spot this group in the North Yard of Peachtree Habitat!

Chimp Chatter About This Group:
-
Nell Triggs combined fond childhood memories with her professional career in her mural “Jane and Flint” inside a Project Chimps villa.

There’s no denying that chimps love to eat! Here at Project Chimps, their diet consists of fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. In addition to daily breakfast and dinner services where each chimp gets a full meal, caretakers also scatter different food items like cabbage, nuts, seeds, carrots and tomatoes over their enclosures for lunch and dinner enrichment. This allows the chimps to engage in one of their natural behaviors — foraging.
