Today we’d like to present you the storybook “Mariposario” (Butterfly Garden), written by the veterinary Sara Férnandez Lores. Each story brings us closer to the multiple realities endured by the animals that share their life with us. Some stories are cheerful, while others are very sad, like those about abandoned animals, but all of them [...]

CRPL, Lwiro Primate's work is not limited to the rehabilitation and sheltering of orphan primates that have arrived after being confiscated by authorities, like Rosie and Kalima, in the photo. Any conservation project must also develop awareness and educational activities in schools, for they are the future, and the adult population of the area shouldn't [...]

Our program of piggy banks in collaborative institutions implies a constant source of donations, for which we are very thankful to the establishments that allow us to place the piggy banks as well as the people that function as connectors and their coordinator, Marta Prieto. Today we'd like to thank Animal Sapiens, a chain of shops [...]

Today we'd like to thank two people who are very immersed in animal protection, Mònica Martín and Xavier Gallego, from Sant Feliu de Guíxols in Girona. They help us with diverse activities, like piggy banks and SOS Primates markets ( they are in Vilablareix some weekends a month). As you can see they are really creative: they made us artificial [...]

One of the principal dangers for primates is their poaching to consume their meat. The adults are killed, cut to pieces, and smoked ( so their meat lasts longer), often in front of the offspring that have been snatched from their mother. Because the offspring don't have enough meat, they are sold in the illegal [...]

There are many people that contribute their time, energy, and resources to SOS Primates. Like Guillem, that fabricates handmade thread bands for us. They all vary in color and size and are beautiful. What we gather with them we destine for the food expenses of the more than 200 orphan primates of the Lwiro Primates Rehabilitation Center [...]

These days have been tough for the CRPL: three chimpanzee offspring and two of baboon are on their way to the center. Two chimpanzee offspring did not make it on time, they died. We'll keep you informed. You can see in the pictures the complicated terrain and the tedious transfer through earth and wind. By [...]

A long yet productive day for SOS Primates is already over. We were in three stands: one in the second-hand market in Vilablareix, in Girona, with Mònica and Xavi, the second one at the Barcelona Zoo, directed by Mònica, Sol and Raúl and the last one in Paseo del Born, managed by Maria, Aurora, Nuria, Yuri and Toni. We gave out information [...]

Another way to collaborate with SOS Primates is to request one of the books given by different authors, so we can receive an extra help for them. Check out the catalog and request yours, as well as the natural or the artificial rose to pick up in the stand or to be delivered to your home. Or, [...]

The nice weather is starting, and it's the occasion to model the SOS primates shirt, with which you'll help the primates of the Lwiro Primates Rehabilitation Center(CRPL) and the local community of this area of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Don't forget that more than 50 local people have salary and medical assistance thanks to this project, [...]
