The blissful ape throws herself around using trees, branches and ropes in Southwick's Zoo in Mendon, Massachusetts. The playful scene was captured by photographer Abeselom Zerit when he visited the zoo in north-western America. The 43-year-old, of Pawtucket , Rhode Island, says: "This adolescent chimp, named Tanzie, turned six in March and she reminds me a lot of my own five-year-old - very curious and rascally!
