The Funky Gibbon

Gibbons have VERY long arms (as you can see in the photo).

Do, do, do the Funky Gibbon

This means we don’t normally go within three feet of the gibbon cages as they like to reach out and grab things. Unfortunately we have to top up their water buckets which are attached to the fronts of the cages using a watering can. Much to the amusement of a cage full of gibbons, one of them managed to grab the watering can off Dulcie and give her a soaking.

We also have to prepare all the food for all the primates and there’s over 150 of them – that’s a lot of bananas!

If you want more info on this Wildlife Rescue Centre or the other volunteer work we’re doing I’ve added a couple of links to this site (on the right under “My Links”).

    You do realise I’m going to have to kill you now, don’t you?
    I now have The Funky Gibbon playing on Brain Radio on an endless loop… which is precisely why you named this entry that way, I assume 🙂

    Incidentally – stand by to repel boarders. If everything pans out the way we’d like we may be over in Vancouver next year some time…
