Not to make chimpanzees my entire personality, but my friend gave me this beautiful painting by two juvenile chimpanzees at the Maryland Zoo (Lola and Maisie, ages 4.5 and 3) and honestly, this is my vibe. What would you call this painting?

And why invest in Bored Ape NFTs when you could invest in tangible artwork by Enriched Apes?

Mary Jeannette Wilson (2 January 1937 – 25 May 2020) was born in West Baltimore, Maryland. She had two siblings, one older and one younger. Her parents were Willie Wilson and Mary Henry. She graduated from Paul Laurence Dunbar High School.

Wilson began working at the then Baltimore Zoo in 1961. She was hired by Arthur R. Watson, who was head of the zoo from 1948 until 1980. From the beginning of her career she worked with mammals, specializing in gorillas, cats and elephants. She retired in 1999.

In July 2019 Wilson started to show signs of Alzheimer's disease. On April 1, 2020 she moved to Genesis Healthcare Patapsco Valley Center in Randallstown, Maryland. On May 4, 2020 she was diagnosed with COVID-19, and was admitted to Northwest Hospital on May 8. She died on May 25 after being unresponsive for 14 days. She was survived by her daughter, Sharron Wilson Jackson, who was the first African-American female senior zookeeper at the Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium, in Omaha, Nebraska, and by a grandson, Felipe Herrara.

BOMBSHELL REPORT: More than a year before the global outbreak, Fauci-run lab in the United States EXPERIMENTED WITH CORONAVIRUS STRAIN shipped in from China..

READ THAT TWICE..

An investigation has revealed that US taxpayer funds were allocated for experimenting with coronaviruses from the Chinese lab suspected as the potential source of the Covid pandemic, over a year before the global outbreak.

Under the leadership of Dr. Anthony Fauci, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) conducted experiments in 2018, infecting 12 Egyptian fruit bats with a 'SARS-like' virus known as WIV1.

These experiments took place in a lab located in Montana, which was just a 15-minute drive from the Maryland presidential retreat, Camp David.

The WIV1-coronavirus used in these experiments was obtained from the Wuhan lab, which the FBI believes may have played a role in causing the Covid pandemic.

Additionally, the virus was tested on bats obtained from a local Maryland zoo.

[naturalrights-retard]

SOTN Editor’s Note: What is quite astonishing about the following exposé is that the inimitably treacherous Dr. Fauci was able to keep his Montana biolab under wraps for so long.  After nearly fours years of extensive investigations into the true origins of COVID-19, the following bombshell disclosures are being made only now.  And the bioweapon laboratory is right here in our own back yard.  Now that’s an impressive cover-up!

REVEALED: Anthony Fauci-run lab in MONTANA experimented with coronavirus strain shipped in from Wuhan a year BEFORE Covid pandemic began

The NIH infected 12 bats with a SARS-like coronavirus in 2018

The virus was shipped from Wuhan to an NIH lab in Montana

US taxpayer money was used to experiment with coronaviruses from the Chinese lab thought to be the source of the Covid pandemic more than a year before the global outbreak, an investigation has found.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH), under Dr Anthony Fauci‘s leadership, infected 12 Egyptian fruit bats with a ‘SARS-like’ virus called WIV1 at a lab in Montana in 2018.

The WIV1-coronavirus was shipped from the Wuhan lab the FBI believes caused the Covid pandemic and was tested on bats acquired from a ‘roadside’ Maryland zoo.

Can you say something about Rhode Island

It's small, will receive the 5th poll Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Ohio are ahead of it. I like t Acela Corridor. Providence seems nice, I want to visit the Roger Williams Zoo and Mystic Aquarium.
