Gearing up 4 Gorillas

The Congolese Wildlife Authority (ICCN) rangers have confiscated four chimps recently - all from different areas. They are now all in Goma being cared for. Three are doing well but Maiko is very, very ill and he may not make it.

Preparations are being made to fly them to the chimp sanctuary JACK further south. There are already 19 chimps being cared for there and JACK is badly under resourced. If you feel you can help, please donate via www.jack.wildlifedirect.org    Little Maiko, below, is getting all the help the vets can give him…..
