Rescued Primates Receive a Second Chance

Recently, a young chimpanzee and baboon were confiscated by ICCN rangers in Badengaido and brought to our In-Country Director, Rosie Ruf, for initial care. Badengaido is a town inside the Okapi Wildlife Reserve that has grown exponentially as it is a collection point for miners to access illegal mines nearby.  The animals were brought to our station because we work in partnership with ICCN and confiscated animals need to be cared for until they can be released or placed in sanctuaries that have space for the animals.  To read more, click here.
