A 28-year-old chimpanzee named Vanilla was “awestruck” after she saw open sky for the first time in her life at a sanctuary in Fort Pierce, Florida. Vanilla reportedly spent the first few years of her life locked in a small cage at a research lab.
She was then transferred to a sanctuary in California where she lived"inside a chain-link fence cage with no grass and very little enrichment.
“She had never been outside of a lab cage or the garage-sized enclosure she was transferred to in California,” Save the Chimps said. “Vanilla is settling in very well,” the group said in a statement."When she’s not exploring the island with her friends she can usually be found perched atop a three-story climbing platform surveying her new world.
“She gets along with all of the other 18 chimps on her island, and has a particularly playful relationship with the alpha male Dwight, from whom she steals food,” they added. Credit: Save the Chimps/Dr Andrew Halloran via Storyful
