Happy Holidays from the Chimpanzees of Sanaga-Yong Rescue Center!
(Charlos Plays With Simossa)
As the holidays approach, we reflect upon the year and are deeply grateful for the compassion and support that you - friends of IDA-Africa - expressed throughout 2011! It is a comfort to know so many individuals are touched by the plight and magnificence of Great Apes and that we are not alone in our efforts to save chimpanzees and gorillas from extinction.
Our Bush Telegraph recaps some of the significant events of 2011: Charlos and Cathy's introduction to their new family, the arrival of three new babies and our involvement in the community. It also acknowledges some of the special people that contribute to the care of the 72 chimpanzee residents of Sanaga-Yong Rescue Center.
IDA-Africa wishes you the very best this holiday season!
