Valentine 3 – bamboo mats & apples thanks to Fran!

The chimps again, thanks to the kindness of one of their Valentines, were very surprised to leave their night quarters and to discover new decorated playgrounds!!!

This time, handmade bamboo mats were fixed all over the place providing the open air facilities a ‘new look’. And apples were hung everywhere as well!

Although our boardes are used to these natural mats, they were somehow a bit scared at the beginning since there were so many on their playground :). But when they saw the apples, Fran’s Valentine enrichment had no secrets any more.

At first, all the apples were eaten up. Some boarders even collected more than 1!

Finally,  it was time to play with the mats, to ‘peel off’ any part of it…

This part of the enrichment lasted for hours. In the evening, when time came to get the chimp indoors for the night, some of them were still ‘working’ on their mats, peeling off slowly every single part of it!

The chimps had again great fun today and this was thanks to you, dear FRAN! Thank you again for caring about these orphans and for giving them special times !!!
