Two-and-a-half-year-old chimpanzee youth, Nkurukoto, is as much fun to watch as about any toddler you’ll encounter.  Curious, adorable, and funny, he certainly kept my attention for quite some time!  There were several white hard hats in the exhibit with the chimps.  I’m not sure if they’re there as toys or as serving dishes, but I do know that Nkurukoto had quite a good time with his!

Chimpanzee Photo #1.  Watching Nkurukoto eat out of his white hard hat reminded me of how my niece used to eat her meals out of a Royals batting hat.

Chimpanzee Photo #2.  Nom nom nom.

Chimpanzee Photo #3.  Look!  I made a happy plate hat!
