Ape genius

Thank you so much this month to Theresa S who gave us $100 and also to our friends at the Stuttgart Zoo!
National Geographic were at the sanctuary last April as part of a documentary called Ape Genius. It was all about how brilliant the bonobos are, which of course we knew already but it was nice to see on film….
Check it out on http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/apegenius/extras.html
It’s the one called ‘An indirect approach’…

hi girls,
yes that’s my hubby. isn’t he a dork? he is totally in love with malou, see post ‘coming up to xmas’ as in he is nuts about her. i may as well not exist when she is around, so it’s lucky we don’t live at lola full time.
the bonobo in my book bio is kindu. he is the one getting me all wet here:
