Sooo sweet!! ♥️♥️

Looks like me and Papaw !!Love you

Read and donated. Twice! Once from my family with two young daughters who are third gen animal lovers and once from my dad who was the first extreme animal lover in our family! I have fibromyalgia and sometimes feel like a lab chimp. Thank you for what you do! We live in New Orleans. When my kids are older and a little less cranky about longer car rides we will definitely come to one of your visiting days.

Pierre and Angela 😍❤️

Anyone who enjoyed the BBC documentary Sue Perkins and the Chimp Sanctuary no doubt remembers Pierre. He was adamant about showing the crew what a tough guy he is, and later Jill won him over with some playful flirting.

What you didn’t see in the film, though, was Pierre’s on again/off again “long distance” relationship with Angela.

Angela is the girl next door, and a sweetheart of a chimp with an endearing personality. She’s totally chunky and has almost no hair. What she does have, though, is Pierre’s heart.

Although Pierre gets along well with the ladies in his own group, he only has eyes for Angela. He shows his affection by weaving strips of blankets through the mesh for her, and like an old married couple, they sit together and watch the day go by.

These days they’re both fascinated by the construction going on at the sanctuary as Chimp Haven expands its habitats to make room to welcome more new chimps. You can often find them sitting together, keeping each other company as they watch the construction trucks drive up and down the roads at the sanctuary. ... See MoreSee Less

Today’s love story is an update on one of our favorite new friendships: Sarah Anne and Marie.

At age 59, Sarah Anne is Chimp Haven's oldest resident, and to be honest, this queen hasn't always had a lot of patience for other chimps.

Enter Marie.

Marie was introduced to Sarah Anne's group last year and the two took to each other. They’ve been incredibly close ever since, and Marie has taken it upon herself to become Sarah Anne’s official body guard in addition to her best friend. She defends Sarah Anne’s honor and is never far from her side.

During a recent cold snap at the sanctuary, Sarah Anne was not about to get out of her warm bed. Even though Marie prefers to be outside, she loyally snuggled up to her pal and groomed her in her hammock. (Not a bad way to spend a cold day!)

Marie has this BFF thing down to an art. Who’s the Marie to your Sarah Anne?? ... See MoreSee Less
