Guess who’s now running with the big boys now - Boyoma! The little terror of the nursery has been moved in with the big bonobos in enclosure two. I’m totally ecstatic because he bit me last year. Here he is, don’t you love that little angelic face?
But then I took this one which shows he’s still the same Boyoma.
Now the terror of the nursery is Vanga. Can’t believe it. Dear little sweet Vanga who I have known since he was the size of a kitten is now running around terrorizing people. I don’t know why the oldest ones in the nursery always bite. Probably a dominance struggle.

How darling is that picture of Vanga giving his Mama a hug! You can just see the love. So sweet! Lisa

Great pictures! Thanks, Vanessa. If the bonobos bite the human animals in a dominance struggle, then that shows they’re not speciesist. s.

Were it not for the hairy body, Vanga looks like any little boy who loves his mom. How beautiful.

You know what Cathy, that is exactly how I felt about that picture. I just couldn’t put it into words. It’s so true, he looks like a little boy hugging his Mommy. Doesn’t the expression on his little face just say “I love you!” Lisa

THANK YOU VERY MUCH VANESSA for the great pictures of Boyoma (and of Vanga). I hope even though, he left the nursery that you will still get to spend lots of time playing with him. Post a comment

Vanga looks sweet in the photo, even if he is the new l’enfant terrible.
