A Day in the Life of Monkeedoo


Now that school is back in, Monkeedoo has a lot more time to appreciate the simple things in life. As head zookeepers, we try to stimulate the monkees as often as possible and introduce them to new and exciting things. Monkeedoo has started a yoga class and is thoroughly enjoying it. She is excited about learning trying new postures and loves doing the three-legged dog and tree poses. I also believe she is really starting to relish shavasana, or "relaxation". As you see, she has her own yoga mat and eye pillow. She is really becoming quite the yogini.

Monkeedoo also enjoys going to the beach with friends. She loves the texture of sand and loves to see where it will go when thrown. Digging is also one of her favorite things to do while at the beach. She also loves to "surf" as she calls it, standing at the water's edge and holding her arms out.
No matter how full her days get with fun activities and learning, she is always happy to stop and pick up Monkeesee from school.
