About Sheena

Birthday: 4/19/88 | Member of Kasey’s Family

The sanctuary’s only deaf chimpanzee, Sheena is a tough and independent female who regularly makes and uses tools. She has loud vocalizations and has even been seen using sticks as weapons against newly introduced chimps. These attributes have earned Sheena the nickname of “Warrior Princess”. Even though she’s tough, she has a soft side and helps take care of elderly or ill chimpanzees in her group. She’s also a very particular chimp that will only retrieve food from certain locations. Her cleverness helps her to be proficient at enrichment activities.
