Chimp holding an infant?

  • Snorticus by Snorticus

    Is there an infant foot flexing on this chimp's lower left side? Also something moving in trees - chimp? human? I'm having trouble making sense of what is going on in this series.

    This is several minutes after ACP000g0ll / ACP000g0ln / ACP000g0lp / ACP000g0lr and ACP000g0yv and might be the same little family. My notes say "Raj???", but I can't say much more.

    If it is the same family, then, yes, there is an infant foot.

    Looks like nursing to me or am I wrong?

    The family passing by in ACP000g0yv (described by @Snorticus) could be Makena and her offspring. I think I can shortly see her distorted right ear although the video quality is really bad. The infant is still quite small (Sept. 14) and has this very bright muzzle I haven't seen on other infants at AV. Also the size for Jojo-Crann would be ok I think.

    I think you are right, the family passing in ACP000g0yv are Makena & AVInf02 and Jojo-Crann.

    The other female & inf, no idea.... bad view 😕
