He looks like he has a lot to think about.. this is a great shot Ian many people don’t like photos of wild animals in captivity which is a shame, as soon with the world the way it’s going with global warming and deforestation these amazing animals will be no longer in the wild, the only place you will see them is in zoos and wildlife reserves.. maybe someday the world will right itself and these animals will then be bred from the survivors and released back into the wild ..which is what zoos are trying hard to accomplish even now with there conservation projects.

Agree Lizzie, These chimps have a very large enclosure with plenty to keep them occupied. They are well looked after even though they are in captivity. Most likely live longer than they might in the wild. 😀
