Getting To Know Them Better

Mikayla is a lovely young adolescent female who is a bit reserved and seems to enjoy her “alone time”.

She was born at a breeding compound in Missouri where a number of our other sanctuary residents originated from before they were sold by the breeder to entertainment or as private pets. (Mikayla’s mother was Gaby and her father was Tonka. So, she is a half-sister to Natsu, Connor, Candy, and Crystal on her mother’s side… and half-sister to Kerry, Bentley, and Chloe on her father’s side.)

Mikayla is very creative and likes to shred blankets or sheets and then wear them all day like a scarf or around her shoulders like a shawl. She enjoys quietly looking at pictures in magazines and frequent naps with her closest friend (and sister) Chloe. However, she can also be very active and loves to play tug-of-war and brachiate across the top of her tall outdoor habitat.

Mikayla loves any dried fruit like apricots, prunes, or dates …but fresh tomatoes are her favorite!

ADOPT AN APE

It costs over $25,000 a year to care for one of our apes. By symbolically adopting the ape of your choice for a one-time donation of $300 OR just $25 a month for one year, you are helping ensure the health, safety, and well-being of your orangutan or chimpanzee.

In addition to cash donations, the Center for Great Apes is always in need of food, enrichment items, and supplies. We welcome gifts of all kinds.
