Beni and Mbandaka Settle In
The 2 smallest chimpanzees at the CRPL have settled in well
with the nursery group, now totalling 13.
They are very popular with the bigger infants and there were fights over
who got to hold the newest babies!
Lulinga in particular has proved a wonderful mother figure and is always
with one of the youngsters and sleeps with Mbandaka every night. Beni is sweet and timid, however she is
playing more and more and growing quickly.
Mbandaka is highly intelligent and not afraid of anything, she will be a
real power house when she grows up!
