We are still fundraising for the expansion of the enclosure's at Chimfunshi! Our current biggest goal is to fundraise for two solar panels which really provide great improvement for the Escape Artist's every day living.
While we are still fundraising, great activities have been happening on ground with the Escape Artists. Volunteers and staff have become quite creative with some of the activities! The activities include behaviour enrichment, food preparation, farming, enclosure cleaning, boundary patrol, chimp observations, vet assistance, infrastructure improvements, and educational activities.
Check out this activity that was done in May!, "Something a bit different to spice up the week for our chimps at enclosures 3 & 4. Enrichment is a big part of volunteers' time here and this week we went beyond the escape artists and used food colouring on the nshima balls we roll! Our excited chimps were sure to give the strange coloured food a sniff before cautiously eating them..."
There have been movie nights hosted where tickets are sold to the surrounding community and they have been a hit! We are excited to continue to fundraise for this enclosure and thank you to everyone's support thus far!
