Mema’s Forest School Escapades
According to her surrogate mothers, Mema frequently indulges in the wild fruit that she finds and collects on her adventures. Once she has obtained these exquisite delicacies, she will consume them in the uppermost canopy where it is safe from the snatching hands of her buddies. While Mema doesn’t want anybody touching her stash, she is not unaccustomed to cheekily nabbing fruit that the surrogate mothers have yet to distribute among the group. She has been observed sneaking up on the group and circling the fruit in an attempt to avoid being caught…
Mema is an adept multitasker as she climbs and snacks.
Mema shows off her new skills as she travels across the treetops by making body bridges.
