Happy birthday to the old ladies, Chapel and Rand! 👵 We are unsure exactly how old they are, but we estimate them to be in their mid-20s. Even though they don't have an official birth date, we always make sure to celebrate them every year!

Smile if it's your birthday 😃 Jax turned 19 years old today! In the wild, male mandrills typically live up to 20 years old, but in managed care they can reach up to 40 so we are looking forward to many more years of Jax.
