SAVE THE CHIMPS SANCTUARY

The rest of the group of chimpanzee Seve – which, after this trip, joined the first ones who had arrived a few weeks before – finally entered their island last May 1st. Seve and his group are among the chimpanzees who were retired from Coulston Foundation and are being transferred to the sanctuary.

Seve, the leader of the group, who lived by himself for years and had never felt Grass before, was the first one to get into the island, still with doubts and fear due to everything he had already suffered. After young Apollo followed him, together with Rickely, who worked in a circus. Anna, Val and Chelsea were a little more hesitant, but did not resist and curiosity took them to follow the others.

Now the group, which can be considered, is completed and willing to forget the past and the suffering, in order to begin a new life under the sun of Florida and with the company of humans who really love them.
