Another threat pri­ma­tes face is domes­ti­ca­tion, the demand for offs­pring by peo­ple who pay dea­lers to keep them as pets. 

Pri­ma­tes are power­ful, gro­wing up they may gene­ra­te risks, they are pos­ses­si­ve, and in a hou­se, they can’t satisfy their die­tary, spa­tial, socia­li­za­tion, and caring requirements.

Besi­des, it’s not ethi­cal. Also, you know that to obtain offs­pring like the one in the pic­tu­re, they have to kill the mother becau­se she would­n’t give it willingly without figh­ting until death.

In the pic­tu­re on the right, the offs­pring is being expo­sed in an Asian shop­ping cen­ter to exploit it eco­no­mi­cally, which in turn gene­ra­tes more demand for it.

SOS Pri­ma­tes is firmly against kee­ping exo­tic ani­mals as pets.

The next SOS­li­dary raf­fle, from which we already have the num­bers assig­ned, will be cele­bra­ted 29th of Sep­tem­ber, 2023.

The funds gathe­red through the raf­fles are des­ti­ned to save the oran­gu­tans in Indo­ne­sia ( from Bor­neo and Suma­tra). The NGO that will recei­ve said dona­tions is the Oran­gu­tan Foun­da­tion.

The pri­ze includes:
-Oran­gu­tan stuf­fed animal
-Afri­can zebra mask
-Hand­ma­de cand­le from soy, gif­ted by our collea­gue Irene
- Set of stic­kers of mammals
-Still life pain­ting, gif­ted by R.Puignou
-Copi­to de Nie­ve poster
-Hand­ma­de cera­mic figure
-Gru­po Lur Tera­pia y Edu­ca­ción bag
-Suma­tran Rhino Con­ser­va­tion shirt
-Nec­kla­ce
-Book­mark
-4-lea­ves lucky clover
-Hand­ma­de wrist­band from plants, from Borneo
-Hand­ma­de and pain­ted jewelry box
-Long-slee­ved polo shirt for ska­te followers
- Cabár­ceno ashtray
-Hat, glo­ves, and scarf
   The lucky num­ber will be the one that mat­ches the last 3 digits of the 1st pri­ze of the ONCE raf­fle on the cited day. If the num­ber is grea­ter than 199, mul­ti­ples of 2 will be sub­trac­ted to the hun­dreds digit until the num­ber corres­ponds to the ran­ge (0–199).
