A visit to Chimp Eden
For animal lovers a visit to Chimp Eden ( A non-profit organization) is highly recommended. If you are an international tourist visiting the Kruger National Park, visiting Chimp Eden is about an hour away from the Malalane gate.
Chimp Eden is part of the Jane Goodall Institute.
A sanctuary for chimpanzees that have been rescued from various African countries that were victims of the bush meat and illegal pet trade. The JGI is an incredible organization with various projects all aimed at making the world a better place. With the inspiration of Dr Jane Goodall it is run with love and inspires hope that we can make the world a better place. With chimpanzees critically endangered - hope is needed but mostly - urgent changes and action.
Statistics don’t tell the tragic story of the illegal pet trade and bush meat trade. Human and chimp DNA is 98.8 percent the same, and yet chimpanzees are still killed for their meat. Chimpanzees are still illegally sold to the pet trade. On average 8 to 10 adults are killed during the capture of the babies, the orphaned babies are often injured and severely traumatized during the capture. Many of them die from the stress, injury or starvation during the journey to the illegal buyer or they are caged or kept on chains with no shelter, some for years with no stimulation, social interaction or proper care.
We can make a difference - don’t watch or support any animal that is exploited for human entertainment. Instead visit or support reputable sanctuaries or animals in the wild.

“Only if we understand - can we care
Only if we care - will we help
Only if we help will they be saved”
