Monika Kostrzewa - great apes

Monika Kostrzewa - great apes

The forewoman of the Non-Ungulate Mammals – Great Apes section supervises the work of the chimpanzees’ and gorillas’ keepers. When working with these incredible animals, you have to show great patience and dedication. Great ape caretakers spend several hours a day with their charges – they prepare meals, conduct observations, make the time more pleasant by providing various entertainments and toys and, of course, clean up the enclosures. The apes grow very attached to their caregivers and do not like and trust everyone.
