Maxi
Birth Month: July
When she first arrived at the sanctuary, Maxi was always interested in what care staff was up to โ but now thatโs sheโs been introduced to a larger family, sheโs way too busy with her new chimp friends to give them the time of day. Sheโs extremely smart and loves toys (she can always been seen carrying around three or four of her favorites). Sheโs also got a mischievous streak, and likes to โstealโ items and craft them into tools. No doubt this smart lady will keep us on our toes!
