He lived in bad conditions, in a very small cage in a private zoo in Israel. He arrived at Anami in 2009, at 24 years old.

He was very scared and avoided any contact. Today, Mizrachi lives in an enclosure of approximately 10,000 square meters. His outdoor area has wooden structures, bridges, a 10-meter tower, and a pool so he can cool off and quench his thirst. He is always watching and interacting with his neighbor Judy, a chimpanzee who lived in the same zoo as him.

Mizrachi likes to rest in his tower, but he also walks a lot and is often seen on top of the coconut trees collecting jerivá nuts. From up there, he also observes the other groups and vocalizes frequently with the other chimpanzees.
