On Octo­ber 25 and 26, 2024, the Her­bi­vo­res Cour­se orga­ni­zed by AICAS (Ibe­rian Asso­cia­tion of Wild­li­fe Care­gi­vers) took pla­ce at Bio­parc Valencia.
SOS Pri­ma­tes extends its gra­ti­tu­de to this asso­cia­tion for their unwa­ve­ring sup­port of our NGO, as they con­sis­tently allow us to fea­tu­re our hand­ma­de crafts at their stand, the­reby enabling us to rai­se funds for the orpha­ned primates(now over 200) resi­ding in theLwi­ro Pri­ma­tes (CRPL), in the Demo­cra­tic Repu­blic of the Con­go, such as Namo­ya, shown in the photo.
Sin­ce its incep­tion, AICAS has who­lehear­tedly sup­por­ted our cau­se. Among its mem­bers are indi­vi­duals who are com­mit­ted to our asso­cia­tion. The cour­se was a resoun­ding suc­cess, attrac­ting 91 atten­dees from seven coun­tries, inclu­ding repre­sen­ta­ti­ves from 18 zoo­lo­gi­cal ins­ti­tu­tions in Por­tu­gal, Spain, Ire­land, and Ger­many, along with pro­fes­sio­nals from ani­mal medi­ci­ne and uni­ver­si­ties from Madrid, Cos­ta Rica, and Mexico.
AICAS is undoub­tedly making cru­cial con­tri­bu­tions to the trai­ning of ani­mal care­gi­vers. If you wish to learn more about their work, plea­se follow them at their web and social media.
