About Me

I was born December 16, 1999 to parents Kohei and Wes. I was born at The Coulston Foundation during a time when the lab was entering into extreme financial difficulty. To try to raise money, Coulston sold a number of chimps to the entertainment business. I was purchased by a Hollywood trainer, who later agreed to get out of the chimp business and send me and my companion Cody to Save the Chimps, as a part of a court settlement.

Now, I’m back with my mom, Kohei, and we’re part of a big, boisterous chimpanzee family. I’m a huge fan of food and juice, and when I have a cup in hand, you’ll see me asking the staff for a refill. My favorite spot to enjoy a meal is from the comfort of a hammock, just relaxing and savoring every bite. Despite the staff’s efforts to keep them out of reach, I can’t resist grabbing the water hoses—thank goodness for long sticks on our island that help me in my mischievous plans. Living here, I’m just a happy, spirited chimp making the most of retirement!
