a chimpanzee with a strong centre part standing on a forest trail
Lafrog (the internationally acceptable spelling of Laphroaig), bringing a little je ne sais quoi with his pencil-thin moustache nose-line and super smooth centre part...

A chimpanzee (Jura) reaches for figs on a branch
OG whisky trio : Elgin, Morangie, and Jura were all older males in the early days of #teamWaibira habituation - as a result the few photos of them are typically with their faces full of tasty figs!

Next up with an impressive set of side burns for a younger guy.. we've got Ardbeg bringing the pensive smoulder..
side note: my suggestion to name a chimp Uigeadail led to a rare universal veto on the grounds that no-one needs that many vowels in their name..

A distinguished older male chimpanzee naps in the sun
One of my personal favourites and another ex-alpha, the silver fox of #teamWaibira
Please show appropriate respect (and don’t wake him from nap time) for Talisker…

A chimpanzee with a freckled face looks at the camera
Our former alpha Ben (Nevis)
Also the Scots term for our mountains. Which he resembles by being short in stature but easily takes down the overconfident…

A chimp on the ground scrumping yellow fruit
Next up Fiddich (we need different letter codes for our IDs so we had to drop all the Glen’s)
His nickname is chubby for obvious reasons, will never knowingly be early to leave any feeding situation 😂❤️

A chimpanzee sits on a branch looking off into the canopy
Starting off with a classic : meet Macallan!
Like his namesake he’s smooth and classy (and popular with the ladies!)

Appropriately one of the communities of chimps in this dataset has a generation of males named after single malt whiskies 😂🥃🙈🧪
Since I’m stuck in an airport for several more hours, one like = whisky chimp photo/backstory!
