Adopt a rescued chimpanzee
The chimpanzee lives only in Africa and is a critically endangered species. Many chimpanzees fall victim to poachers, who kill adult animals for their meat (bushmeat). The infants end up in the illegal wildlife trade. Lonely, abused, and malnourished, they live as pets or tourist attractions. Fortunately, some are found and confiscated.

Rescued chimpanzees go to sanctuaries such as Tacugama Chimpanzee Sanctuary in Sierra Leone and Limbe Wildlife Centre in Cameroon. Go Ape Foundation collaborates with these wonderful centers that not only help animals in need but also do their utmost to preserve the natural habitat of these animals. We have therefore included orphans from these sanctuaries in our adoption program.

A new chance for rescued chimpanzees
No one can make up for the loss of their mother, but the young animals that find a new home in the chimpanzee sanctuaries grow up with their peers and receive the best possible care.
Your adoption contributes to the care of these rescued baby chimpanzees. This gives them a new chance at a life that is as good and natural as possible.
What do you get in return?
Satisfaction! Because a few thousand kilometers south of here lives a rescued baby chimpanzee who, thanks to people like you, receives the loving care he or she so desperately needs.
Naturally, you want to know everything about your chosen chimp. Therefore, you will receive:
- A digital adoption certificate;
- The biography of the chimpanzee you have adopted;
- An update every four months about your adopted chimpanzee;
- Our quarterly newsletter, ChimpMail.
Our founder, Rowena, works for several weeks a year in the sanctuaries we partner with. We therefore personally keep an eye on how your adopted chimpanzee is doing.
