Many thanks to all of you and the work that you are doing on behalf of these wonderful creatures that are so much a resemblance of ourselves. Keep up the good work.
This makes my heart happy and heavy at the same time. How could we, as a nation have allowed our Government to use these beautiful, sentient beings as a test tube,. Kept in deplorable conditions, hidden away like an awful, dirty secret. And from what I have read, no significant medical breakthroughs were made by using them. And the worst part, our tax dollars were being utilized to conduct these unnecessary, inhumane experiments. We must never allow this to go on again!!! Thank you for giving these beings, the love, care and above all freedom they deserve.
Humans need to be more responsible in their choices......I don't use any drugs.....I buy only products "not tested on animals" the use of any innocent creature in labs is totally unnecessary...... I was taught by my mother "god put us on this earth as "guardians" to all creatures....and I try to live by that in all aspects of my life...the older I get the more intolerant of humans behaviour I become....
travel31511 what you say is true and I support it. But at times in history life saving medications have been developed by using chimps. Yes it’s sad but for the greater of humanity it was a right choice. Before you disagree, but your loving daughter or son in a dying situation and tell me you don’t want a drug developed to save your child. See talk is cheap until you or a loved one is involved. Fortunately to we have advanced and the need for chimps is there as much. Why don’t you fight for the chimp by stopping the mass harvesting of chimps for bushmeat? That’s the real killer. I think more people should have them as pets. Wow, hold on before you chop off my head. They can have a good life and breed to help be introduced into the wild, the offspring. You know living in the wild getting your ass beat and dominated by a bastard male isn’t so great. So go easy on captive apes raised by loving parents (humans).
You guys and chimpanzee sanctuary northwest in Washington State are wonderful thank you for giving these animals that have given so much of those lives serving us often held in small concrete cages for 20-30 years sometimes more NEVER seeing the siun or trees or the sky of fresh air or even another chimpanzees places like this to live out the rest of their lives with other chimps being free to finally breathe fresh air in explore outside and have clean and large living facilities. Thank you and all who have donated to these projects.
kurumais - not sure about the first question but I believe the channel has a handful of videos showing how the chimps are socially integrated into the environment.
Not sure who designs these places but when introducing chimps into these environments it's done slowly, especially introducing them to other chimpanzees it's usually done on a one-on-one basis and then they'll slowly introduce them to the rest of the troop. Some of these chimpanzees have lived in a small cage for 30 years never even seeing another chimpanzee so it's a process but they take care that it's done safely and give the chance plenty of time to get to know each other and in some cases to simply learn how to be a chimpanzee. There's another place it's called chimpanzee sanctuary Northwest it's in Washington State that has a awesome new facility also they have lots of videos the name of the channel is the same, chimpanzee sanctuary Northwest.
Two unrelated topics which make a false analogy and false dilemma. But if you ask me to compare: Chimps: 2.000.000 , 100 years ago. 200.000 today. Captured alive as babies witnessing the murder of their mothers or breed in captivity, spent 40 years testing medicines and diseases on their bodies. Probably never hurt no one during that time. Asks for nothing but some fruits every day. Vets: voluntarily enlist in an army at 20 for a 5 year job in which handles the most expensive gear in the world and probably kills someone in the name of millionaires. More thousands of millions of this species than 100 years ago. So ask those millionaires, not the people who care about chimps. I will skip the science discussion about how similar they are to us and their experience of living is mostly the same because it's obvious you won't believe it.
The best way to care for these chimps is put an infant male in a room with the Alpha male. Let them get to know each other. After this is done, bring another infant male.keep doing this down the line until the Alpha is familiar with all the male chimps.
What an absolute obsecene waste of valuable resources on a bunch of useless apes that should have been euthanized a long time ago.. in these times with homeless vets, struggling families with hungry children, and many people in need if the basic necessities, this is an incredibly stupid waste of money. I hope my tax dollars aren't paying for this bullshit! I would rather see children nourished and enriched than these vile disgusting creatures. Screwed up priorities people!!! SMH givr them to our military for target practicing! Don't be fooled people these are very dangerous violent animals!
Such important work. Unfortunately, sanctuaries like these have major operating costs and they survive off of really tight budgets. If you have some money to spare and you think their work is important, I would ask that people consider donating. You can find the link on their website which allows you to donate and help give these chimps a new lease on life.
Improve their well being and create opportunities for them for what? Are they going on job interviews or trying to get in to Harvard? Such a waste, what difference does it make? This is so wasteful because they aren't capable of giving back what's been invested in them. They are vile nasty creatures, I hope they are. Extinct in my lifetime. These useless creatures should have been euthanised. I'm glad at least my tax dollars aren't going to fund this bullshit. I love how you never discuss how violent and dangerous these spawns of Satan are. Chimps are disgusting 🤮🤮🤮

The bible says we have dominion over animals....which means supreme control..power....and authority....it never says be their guardian....it tells us to express supreme control and authority....
