When the trek is hard, and the rain comes down, but finally getting your mom out to see baby gorillas is so worth it! 🦍 #bwindi #GorillaTime #Nature
Three people in surgical masks and ponchos with a family of mountain gorillas in the background (but you can barely see them because they’re in the underbrush) A mother mountain gorilla holding her 2 yo infant under some vegetation in a light rain. They are both very fluffy. A selfie of myself (a thirty-something wannabe intrepid explorer), my husband, and my mother on a very narrow trail on a very steep hill in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Uganda

Took the pups for a ride to play in the snow today and Odis really hit his angles
A woman in black sunglasses poses with her small black terrier mix. The pup is only six but he’s so gray he looks twelve. He’s wearing a color-blocked hoodie and looking into the distance like the super model that he is. The woman in black glasses and her dog are posing again but this time she’s smiling while he does his best Blue Steel- a pouty face pose- looking into the distance ahead. Not sure whose hair is more salt-and-pepper… but they both wear it well ;)

I chase apes and monkeys around like the paparazzi. Sometimes I also steal their pee for science.

It's so exciting to see things growing over here! As a reintroduction - I'm Kris and I'm a primatologist studying how wild primates grow up. Connect with me for some fun science, and of course, gratuitous primate pics!

Probably a good time to introduce myself- I'm Kris and I study how nonhuman primates grow up with the goal of comparing those patterns to humans and learning a bit about ourselves! #TeamMammals #TeamPrimates #WomenInScience

Hi everyone! So glad to see familiar faces over here. Plus you know I always love a new place to post some chimp pics 🙊 Happy #FieldworkFriday, ya'll!
two infant chimpanzees playing in the branches of a fallen tree. One hangs just slightly above while the other tries to pull them down. The lower chimp is turned toward the camera making a play-face with an open mouth.
