Bow's Second Display of the Morning

During the first display this morning, there was a lot of jumping up and down. The second display is more mellow and involves sideways jumping.

Being next to a displaying chimp must be scary and if the chimp doesn't mind you being there he must be very fine with you

[@CDPW]

Holy moly, that guys got energy.

[@ireland1953]

It seems Bow is getting freaked out by the dog. The dog, though, is standing its ground. Or they're simply playing.

Bow and Leo are friends. They have known each other since Leo was a puppy.

That Chimp is in fact not playing. Not even a little. Given tbe chance that Chimp would rip.that Dog in 2. The day will come when that Chimp will tear his owner apart as well which the owner totally deserves. Unfortunately the Chimp will put down as always happens in those cases

[@strawberrypudding7729]

The dog doesn't like it much.

[@kayleen9110]

How much does Bowe weigh?

[@grayfireproductions]

At 0:22, Bow makes that same lip-sputtering sound I hear those Myrtle Beach Safari chimps make sometimes (see link). Does it mean anything in particular when Bow does that? Or is it just a general way of expressing joy? kzbin.info/www/bejne/epeol3yan91mfsk

[@AyaKatz]

I don’t think it means anything. All the behaviors that Bow has in common with other chimpanzees are instinctive, not learned. His meaningful communication is through language he learned from me and my family and the interns.

[@andretom6657]

Do you own that chimp?

[@AyaKatz]

Yes. And here is the backstory: kzbin.info/aero/PLvKl93VPL_oNJtFvdQcpSC3WEy4bDCCpZ

[@tron9137]

He needs a bigger area, where is Bow today? Im sure you took him out of the goodness of your heart.

[@kayleen9110]

I don't think he likes the dog

[@AyaKatz]

Bow likes to tease the dogs. It does not necessarily mean that he does not like them.
