April 7: World Health Day
posted in 07 Apr 2010

In this Wednesday it is celebrated the World Health Day. GAP Project not only reminds everyone of this day, but also registers, through photos of our brothers chimpanzees, how we should take care of our health.

Lucke, always very active, does not give up his climbing on trees, which maintains his athletic appearance and, consequently, a good state of health.

Carolina, who loves backed chicken, does not forget to take out the skin before eating the meat. After all, it could raise the level of cholesterol. And Billy points that, after all meals, it is important to brush the teeth to have a healthy mouth.

Who said that chimpanzees always have to learn with us? They are giving us lessons now. We should do like them: let us exercise and balance our eating habits so we can celebrate with health the World Health Day!
