When I was very young I had a book about Zippy the Chimp. It was my favorite book. Ever since, every chimpanzee I see has been immediately named “Zippy”. / Taken at the Portland, Oregon Zoo Canon Rebel XTi Canon 70-300mm lens FEATURED:PRIMATE ART 11-11-09 / FEATURED:EYE CONTACT 11-13-09 / /
This is dear little Bobendina. She is a preuss guenon monkey and I had the great privilege of being her Mummy for a while in Cameroon whilst working at the Limbe Wildlife Centre. Her mother was killed illegally by a hunter. She was the sweetest thing you ever did see. These monkeys are highly endangered. When she slept in my room in her box the only peep I heard out of her was a little scratching of leg in the middle of the night. Just before I left Cameroon Bobendina was introduced to a family of Preuss monkeys, in a large cage. On my last day I went to see her and she looked at me and put out her hand through the bars. Oh gosh it was very hard. I hope she is okay now. I feel sad when I see her picture.

Ringtail Lemur in Madagascar. Despite the expression, quite approachable, because I think some tourists feed them. They live amongst rocky outcrops in the South, rather than the deep, dark jungle. A photographer’s delight.
Nina is one of only two remaining wild born Western Lowland gorillas at the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle. She is a grand old lady somewhere between 40 and 50 years old and she is wonderful! She has a fantastic sense of humor. She will sit looking so stoic for a while, then all of a sudden she will stick her tongue out and make faces! I just adore her!
