#WorldChimpanzeeDay

Today is Chim­pan­zee World Day, and in SOS Pri­ma­tes we want to high­light the efforts made so that they don’t disap­pear from Earth.

In the first pla­ce, the labour from Afri­can reco­very cen­ters and sanc­tua­ries, which shel­ter hun­dreds of orphans each year (like the CRPL, Lwi­ro Pri­ma­tes, in the photo).

In the second pla­ce, scho­lars, that study them in their natu­ral habi­tat or under human protection.

Also, it’s highly impor­tant the work of NGOs like ours of rai­sing awa­re­ness of peo­ple and Zoo­lo­gi­cal cen­ters who follow strictly inter­na­tio­nal regu­la­tions for their conservation.

Last but not least, we thank you, who can make so many con­tri­bu­tions from your home. Just to give an exam­ple, when the cli­ma­te is very hot, you can adjust the air con­di­tio­ner so that it relea­ses fewer greenhou­se gas­ses, and the­re­fo­re Earth’s glo­bal tem­pe­ra­tu­re dimi­nishes. Also, you can clo­se the win­dows or doors of your home, shops, and shop­ping cen­ters. Though we unders­tand the COVID situa­tion, we belie­ve it’s neces­sary to open the win­dows for a cer­tain time, but not always.

Do it for them.

From SOS Pri­ma­tes, we’ll con­ti­nue rai­sing awa­re­ness of peo­ple about our work and other actions they can make this Satur­day (16–07-2022), in the Bar­ce­lo­na Zoo and the Zoo Aqua­rium of Madrid.

We’ll be wai­ting for you!
