Adopt a chimp!Born: 20 February 1993

Appearance: Kilimi is a fairly dainty chimp, who takes after her mother Lyndsey and grandmother Cindy.  She is the older sister of Kindia.

History and Character: Kilimi is the youngest female in the group, and has really only just matured into adulthood.

Having a younger brother helped Kilimi learn from her mother how to look after infants.  Chimps learn many skills from their parents, and Kilimi's mum Lyndsey is a good mother and teacher.
