    ISSN-1040-3027, VOL. 31, NO. 3 DECEMBER 2004 Inside: CelebratingCelebrating the liflifee of IPPLIPPL’s’s gibbon Beanie Help close Bangkok’s “department store zoo” Happy holidays from everyone at IPPL! A Letter from IPPL’s Chairwoman Dear IPPL Member, We at Headquarters are all devastated by the loss in October of our “special needs” gibbon, Beanie. You’ll find the story of his life in the centerfold of this issue. In 1990 Beanie had developed encephalitis when living at a primate facility in Florida. This terrible disease left him blind and suffering from epilepsy, so he was sent to IPPL for special care. Beanie didn’t let his handicaps defeat him. He was a spunky, personable gibbon, adored by our staff members. Beanie could sing gibbon songs. The only problem was that sometimes he would start singing at 3 a.m. because, being blind, he didn’t know the difference between night and day! He could perform spectacular gibbon acrobatics at whirlwind speed, sometimes spinning round a stationary bar fifteen times. Beanie loved food and had strong preferences. He loved sweet potatoes, but only if they were baked and had a sprinkling of sugar! Another favorite was raisin bread. But not just any raisin bread. He preferred Arnold’s raisin bread, which is loaded with raisins. If you offered him a substitute he would throw it away. We are all going to miss Beanie greatly, but the 31 resident gibbons keep us busy. Courtney is now two and a half years old and still very much an infant.

It was thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated by all team members and the team leader, and we appeared to be joyously received wherever we went! Our hosts were hospitable, generous and gracious. They could not do enough for us. We enjoyed being with every one of them, and they appeared to enjoy our company! Vocational visits were largely concentrated in Pretoria, the only large city in the District, and generally were of superlative quality, including contacts that could never be made in the normal course of travel. Outside Pretoria we enjoyed exposure to mines deep underground, combine harvesters above ground, factories, schools, clinics, South Africa’s unique game parks, and fascinating tribal events. The team debriefing on the last day exposed a wide sensitivity by team members to the qualities, successes, challenges and paradoxes facing Southern Africa. In this debriefing, and in the subsequent written reports, members expressed their very high degree of satisfaction with several aspects of the mission. Committee The Committee members responsible for this mission were: District Governor Bob Benson Chairman Mats Ingemanson Secretary Edgar Cornell Members Wayne Dill Paul Rothstein Chuck Katze David Sullivan Don Lee Neil O’Connell Greg Lynch Ivan Vosloo Jim Romeo Team Leader Peter Grunthal Selection Process New York applications were solicited from New York District clubs and reviewed by committee members.
