Krystal

Krystal July 2021
Krystal has developed a great sense of self-importance. Despite being a mid-ranking member in her group, she is determined to mature into a high ranking female. She is learning to be socially savvy, both building important political friendships with high ranking members of her group, as well as asserting her dominance over those members she views as below her.
When she is not navigating group politics, she can be found playing with the younger chimps in her villa. Some of their favorite games are wrestling, chase, and keep away! Krystal also likes to play with her caregivers and will often ask carestaff for a drink from the hose and when she is finished, she will initiate play by splashing the water back at us while laughing!
Krystal is a smart, funny chimp who is never shy about letting her feelings be known. Even though she is one of the smallest females in her villa, she is able to send our largest males running in fear with just a look. Once she has let someone know that she was unhappy with them though, she always makes sure to reconcile with a nice grooming or play session.
