Yeba

Yeba is the only gorilla at our sanctuary who is not an orphan of the bushmeat trade, but his story is still one of loss. Discovered in November 2004 by researchers in the Dja Reserve, Yeba was lying next to the body of his mother, who had died of Anthrax poisoning. Left unattended for days, he was lucky to survive the experience, but after careful medical attention and loving care, he has grown into a strong young gorilla, who loves to play and imitate the older males.
