WHEN A POACHER KILLS A MOTHER CHIMPANZEE, HER NURSING INFANT CAN BE SOLD ALIVE AS A PET IN CAMEROON OR SMUGGLED OUT TO MEET THE GROWING DEMAND FOR AFRICAN WILDLIFE IN ASIAN ZOOS. SOME OF THE EIGHTY RESIDENT CHIMPANZEES AT THE CENTER HAVE BEEN CONFISCATED AS INFANTS FROM POACHERS OR DEALERS, AND OTHERS HAVE SUFFERED ON CHAINS OR IN SMALL CAGES FOR DECADES BEFORE THEIR RESCUE. AT OUR SANCTUARY, WHICH IS COMMITTED TO LIFELONG CARE, THE EMOTIONALLY DAMAGED CHIMPANZEES EVENTUALLY FIND FRIENDSHIP AND JOY IN ADOPTIVE SOCIAL GROUPS. THEY ENJOY LARGE ENCLOSURE COMPLEXES THAT INCLUDE TRACTS OF NATURAL HABITAT FOREST PROTECTED WITH SOLAR-POWERED ELECTRIC FENCING.
