Ellensburg, Washington - Chimpanzee and Human Communication Institute

In Ellensburg, Washington, we discovered the world-famous but scarcely noted Chimpanzee and Human Communication Institute, where four chimpanzees are on display. Located at the University of Central Washington, the public is invited to attend weekend seminars on their amazing language skills. [Jan Norwood, 06/07/2006]
