QUEEN OF THE SWINGERS: Playful Chimp’s Monkey Business

This is the moment a playful chimpanzee shows she’s the real-life queen of the swingers at her zoo enclosure,

The chimp – called Hope – grabbed a spare banket to put on a show for visitors to Monarto Safari Park, in southern Australia.

Within seconds Hope – who’ll be four next month (Feb) – can be seen turning the blanket into her private swing.

As she holds it in her teeth, she scrambles up to the ceiling of the enclosure and loops it through a rail.

Then she grabs both loose ends and swings backwards and forwards until she lets go and drops off.

The zoo posted the video on its social media platforms with the caption: “Is it a bird, is it a plane… no it’s super-chimp, Hope!”

Hope is one of 12 chimpanzees currently living at Monarto Safari Park, according to their official website.

She is reportedly one of two baby girls in the group.

Hope was born in February 2019 and was named by leading primatologist Dr Jane Goodall, the world’s foremost expert on chimpanzees.
