Great news for today!

YES, thanks to additional donors, our French charity has managed to collect the needed funds to buy 1 year of antibiotics and deworming drugs for our 38 orphans. Isn't that great??? We are so happy as these medicines will help us so much in the coming months to face flu outbreaks and to provide our orphan friends with their regular deworming treatment (3 to 4 times/year).

Again, we would like to thank following donors whose aid made this dream come true:

PICTURE OF THE DAY - Using tools and imagination...Some chimps can be real experts in doing so! Now, today, we ask you to guess: what kind of tool is Kimo using to unearththe roots of what used to be a small tree?

July flu

Every year in July, our orphans suffer a lot from the drastic climate changes causing runny noses, cough, fever and other health/lung issues ! Let's hope the outbreak won't last long and that not many chimps will be sick!

Help us take care of THEM ______

As most of you already know, our NGO lives only through donations and doesn't receive any help from the local government. Donations and adopters' aid enable us buying some food but since our country is going through tough times(political unrest causing deep economic recession) it is getting very hard to provide the chimps with the best care. Of course we receive some funds from different institutions abroad, but these are meant to develop our sanctuary and don't cover any food/veterinary care...

New developments thanks to FBB___________

As mentionned several weeks ago, J.A.C.K. was granted some funds by the Brigitte Bardot Foundation to improve the open air playground of the Nursery II Project.

In 2016, this famous Foundation indeed decided to sponsor the first steps of the new playground: (1) fencing the enclosure & clearing tree stumps and building (2) two jungle gyms as well as a (3) pond.

Today, works have started and we can already show you what we have achieved so far .

Old tree stumps have been cleared...
