In 2002, he was transferred to a zoo in Argentina, living there until January 23, 2018, when he arrived at Anami along with his partner (Punia) and his daughter (Zuri).
He is a protective male and at the same time a little cautious, something common in newly arrived chimpanzees. He respects his partner Punia very much and loves to play with Zuri. The three live in perfect harmony and look out for each other.
