Chimpanzee showers (ick)

Field trip accomplished, maternal duties dispatched. And what did I learn? That chimpanzees’ favorite pastimes include filling up with a huge mouthful of water and blowing it out at full force — preferably toward a person. And if it’s a person who’s trapped in a giant green tram that’s riding on three tires and one metal rim, so much the better!

I also learned that chimpanzees have incredible range — like twenty feet or something — and really, really good aim.

Ugh. I’m off to take a shower now.
