Today was wonderful. The temperature was nice and cool, and I got to go to the zoo! I had to observe primates for my physical anthropology class. I went with my friend Joyce and we observed the chimps!!! At first, I wasn't sure how it was going to be, but it turned out great! The chimps were really active, and there was plenty to observe. But today's post is about one chimp in particular. His name is Willie, and he's six years old. :D
Isn't he cute? He was our favorite, partly because he just
loved to get into trouble. He would try to steal towels from the other chimpanzees and make them mad. He also liked to carry around long sticks and whack others with it, so that they would chase after him. They'd playfully bite him and grab his back legs. It was so cute! Pretty much the whole time, he was trying to get into trouble. Except for in this picture. He was chewing some bark. :D
Sorry this post is short, but I had to put a mention about Willie. He was just too adorable. Especially with his stick. Oh, to be young and playful. :)
We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.
