liberia chimpanzee rescue & protection
LCRP is the first and only chimpanzee sanctuary and conservation center in Liberia rescuing chimpanzees who are victims of the illegal bushmeat and pet trades. More than 40 orphaned chimpanzees, nearly all under the age of five, are currently under the care of LCRP. Each month, more captive chimpanzees are confiscated, allowing for the enforcement of Liberia's wildlife laws. Without the ability to confiscate wildlife, authorities cannot protect and preserve chimpanzees.

Young chimpanzees learn almost everything from their moms. When they’re confused, scared, curious, or proud, they lean on their moms for comfort and affirmation. I’ve learned so much about being a mother from Mother Nature herself; specifically how crushing it is when families are disrupted. Thankfully, through the healing work led by Jim and Jenny Desmond, these extraordinary individuals are recovering and receive 24-hour care. With our support, LCRP can get closer to achieving their dream of building a protected sanctuary, where these resilient and deserving animals can live a more natural and robust life as they deserve.” |
