Tough Guy

Mason

If Mason had a nickname, it would probably be “squirrel.” He’s always on the move and takes any opportunity to prank someone – human or chimp. His most distinguishing feature (his solid light brown face) has darkened with age, but it doesn’t take too long to recognize him: he’s the guy who’s always looking to stir up some trouble. Mason is Carlee’s dad and the alpha of his group.

“Mason might be his group’s alpha, but I don’t know if I would call him a leader yet. Right now he’s more interested in stirring up trouble; he wants everyone to know he’s the king.”
