Four Chimpanzees to Spend the Spring Festival in Changsha

Four Guinean chimps arrived at Changsha Ecological Zoo amidst wind and snow on the evening of Jan.17. They will meet visitors during the coming Spring Festival.
The four two-year-old chimps with two males and two females left their hometown on Jan.15 and reached Beijing Capital International Airport on the evening of Jan.16. And they started their journey to Changsha in a truck the very night after the arrival.
Changsha Ecological Zoo prepared a large comfortable house which covers an area of 1,800

Raisers in the Zoo have worked out a special recipe which includes milk, honey, watermelons, peaches, apples, little tomatoes, bread and other expensive food for the newcomers.
