Chimpanzee Photo of the Week: November 12, 2012

Monday, November 12, 2012 - 7:01am

With the Chimpanzee Photo of the Week we're now playing Caption This! Think of a good caption for this photo and submit it using the comment box below. Next week  we'll share more info about these two chimpanzees and select our favorite caption.

 

 

There were two captions chosen for this photo. So it was a tie last week: 

  • Wait.....wait...hold still....oh..what in the...oh. Got it.
  • OK, Shhhhh, just act like I am grooming you. Now, when he turns his back, you run and grab the food and run back here. I'll stay here and wait for you. 

These two little ones are orphans at JGI's Tchimpounga Chimpanzee Rehabilitation Center. Their names are Kimba and Mona.
