Adult female with dependent baby

  Was tagged as possibly being csfemale02 on the subject page, but I think the infant is too young.

  

  I looked through the CS board, I found one other female with a dependent baby, but we don't get a really good look at her face.

  Just from these two snapshots, the animals look quite alike. Especially around eyebrows and mouth.

  the female in the video ACP0002a6y seems to me different from all the females that we've got until now. I think we have CSFemale04! :]

  There are definitely two different Adult female / Juvenile pairs at CS5.

  Pair one: http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/subjects/ACP00028y2 thru http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/subjects/ACP00028yt (Female has very large swellings http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/subjects/ACP00028ya).

  Pair two: http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/subjects/ACP000290e thru http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/subjects/ACP000290h (Female has small swellings http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/subjects/ACP000290h).

  The female in: http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/subjects/ACP0002a6y definitely looks different. The baby also looks much smaller.

  sneak this in before Charlie to make more sense 😃

  Awesome! Do you think the two videos show the same chimp?

  I've found another video with female + dependent, there really aren't many new babies in Cool Silence!

  ACP0002hu9 Female with an infant on her stomach, and has a really unusual looking swelling(much easier to see in the video) that might match the female in the second video. All three show rather heavyset females with dark faces(okay, ears on the third one..) She's also always camera shy/aware, giving it a good glare or putting her back to it.

  There's a sequence that shows both pairs I talked about at the same time, but the camera has been moved to the right side of the big tree:
  http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/subjects/ACP00027m0 thru http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/subjects/ACP00027m9
  If you watch the full sequence, you'll see both females and both juveniles. Definitely four #chimps here at the same time.
  It's also cool to see the one juvenile try to put to use the rock/tool skills he's been picking up from Mom!!
  Needs a little more work though!

  I think the #chimp in http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/subjects/ACP0002hu9 is the same one shown in http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/subjects/ACP0002a6y. Small baby clutched closely to her belly, and very skittish/camera shy.

  Must be a 3rd pair!!

  In my earlier post, I called them Pair one, pair two. I think I should clarify the names from the Prospective Chimps Females - Cool Silence 5 discussion.

  I think (pair 1) is #CSFemale02, the one with the large swellings.

  Pair two is #CSFemale01, the one with the small swellings.

  Pair three is #CSFemale04, she's the one with the really small baby clutched to her belly.

  Also, if you look in: http://talk.chimpandsee.org/#/subjects/ACP00028z5 @ 0:09. It appears that the juvenile accompanying #CSFemale02 is a #male.
