A day of sanctuary was sponsored by the chimps (and humans!) good friend, Meg Lunnum! Meg shared this message about her gift:

“It is my birthday again! I want to say I am SO EXCITED about contemplating new chimpanzees coming to the sanctuary. That is where I dedicate my birthday. More Chimps!!!!!! And cows, and monkeys and whatever else needs rescuing.”

Meg, thank you so much for all you do for the chimpanzees, for all you contribute to their lives and their home, and their future family! We hope you have the best birthday yet! Happiest of days to you from all of us here!

Annie, Missy and Foxie

    Looks like Jaimie’s got a new game going on, Pick up Sticks, I so loved that game as a child. What does it cost to celebrate my birthday for a day with the chimps as others do ?
    Thanks
    Best Regards
    Carla aka “ Chimpmamma”

      Hi Carla,
      Jamie is great about picking out tools on her walks to bring back inside and groom her caregivers with. 🙂 Thanks for asking about our Sponsor a Day donations! Here’s the link to learn more: https://staging.chimpsnw.org/you-can-help/sponsor-a-day/

    I’m wondering where the new chimpanzees might come from.
    Would they also be retired chimpanzees from medical research?

      Hi Hope,
      Thanks for your question! Other chimps could have backgrounds of medical research, entertainment or as former pets.
