Free and open to the public, visitors will be able to view the chimpanzees in their naturalistic environment as they forage for fruit, vegetables and leaves, and talk to staff about the chimpanzees’ personalities and natural behavior.
There will also be interactive activities for families, a craft booth, veterinary displays, and an enrichment booth where children can make treats for the chimpanzees.
