Ape Conservation in Africa
Wild gorillas and chimpanzees are on the brink of extinction. Habitat loss and poaching threaten these magnifcent animals like never before.
Ape Action Africa is committed to ape conservation in Africa - protecting Cameroon’s great apes through direct action, including rescuing orphaned gorillas, chimpanzees and monkeys,giving them a safe forest sanctuary home where they can live with their own kind.
The hunting continues in Cameroon and little 10-month old Ronnie arrived at Mefou just before Christmas, thin, terrified and suffering with a throat infection. We don’t know much about Ronnie’s past – just that he was kept in a tiny cage, only big enough for him to turn around in. He was highly stressed and anxious from his isolation but we are happy to report that he is recovering well.
