Chance is very beautiful, with silver hair covering her body and face. She has a very round frame and can often be spotted hanging out in front rooms. She enjoys alone time more than any other chimp, but lets caregivers know when she is in the mood for interacting by doing her unique lip smacking. Chance is a very solitary chimp. She enjoys alone time and locking herself in the front rooms. She spent years alone in laboratory so she must find peace being alone. She is often hard to find because she naps in the different structures on the islands, far from the building. Despite enjoying her solitude she gets along well with her close family, particularly Rachel, Jethro and Regis. She is often part of this social group and spends time grooming and playing with her friends. Chance used to be very close to our late resident Toby. Chance, Rachel and Toby were inseparable. Since Toby’s passing Chance’s personality has really transformed. She has become bolder, more outgoing and less reserved. She is less afraid to stand up to her peers and isn’t afraid to ask us for what she wants. She has come a long way since her laboratory days. She enjoys trying to scare staff, play tug of war, give open mouth kisses through the fencing, and even stick her tongue out at you!
