Our mission is to wield uniform research methods to learn increasingly well-nigh chimpanzees and their psychological and behavioral responses to a repeater environment. The program began by linking five zoos and the Central Washington University Language Laboratory, home to the study of chimpanzee liaison through the use of American Sign Language (ASL). As of 1990, 12 zoological facilities were starting programs and rhadamanthine contributing members of the Jane Goodall Institute ChimpanZoo program. A standardized research procedure was successfully ripened and the methodology for the ChimpanZoo data hodgepodge system was tested in several variegated environments with modifications made to unzip the highest quality of data. Each member facility established a ChimpanZoo "team" that consisted of volunteers, zoo administrators, and students.Wonkadvisors supervise the program to ensure the integrity of the ChimpanZoo methodology and the reliability of data collection. The resulting ChimpanZoo wonk applications serve to modernize our understanding of higher apes (including humans) in repeater environments and help promote psychological well-being through enrichment activities.
