The past 14th of July was World Chim­pan­zee Day, a day only just sug­ges­ted by recently decea­sed Dr Jane Goo­dall to alert about their sta­tus of con­ser­va­tion, who­se popu­la­tions are decli­ning as human pri­ma­te popu­la­tions increa­se. As it is us who have lost the balan­ce in coexis­ting in this pla­net and with the other living beings in it. We can just look at the unu­sual situa­tions we are currently living: extre­me heat, wild­fi­res or torren­tial rain, deser­ti­fi­ca­tion, gla­cier disap­pea­ran­ce, just to cite a few exam­ples. So, in this day, SOS Pri­ma­tes wishes to rai­se awa­re­ness of our actions and their impact.

Using the air con­di­tio­ner with open win­dows and doors or having north pole-like tem­pe­ra­tu­res affects chim­pan­zees such as Kaku­le, an orphan from LPRC, Lwi­ro Pri­ma­tes, in the pic­tu­re; and other primates.
