MORE ABOUT CHIMP EDEN

The Jane Goodall Institute South Africa (JGI South Africa) Chimpanzee Sanctuary (Chimp Eden) was established in 2006 and is the first, and only, chimpanzee sanctuary in South Africa, bringing the world of chimpanzees closer to humanity through education and eco-tourism. We began with three rescued chimpanzees and have now grown to three families - totaling 33 chimps (with two babies born at Chimp Eden!).

We have rescued chimpanzees that have survived the bush meat trade, been orphaned, traded in the illegal pet market, or rescued from traumatic situations such as being used for entertainment in circuses, beach resorts and night clubs.  Chimp Eden is their forever home where we have given them a beautiful, relaxed environment where they can live out the rest of their lives free from human cruelty and greed.

Our chimps are the lucky ones, we are still losing their wild counterparts at a sickening rate, mostly due to habitat destruction and the illegal wildlife markets. Our aim at the sanctuary is to provide our chimps with the best life possible and to use their stories to educate our guests about the bigger picture of humanity's destructive habits and what we can do about it.

Caring for our chimps is expensive! But we are lucky in that we welcome 1200 visitor per month and are able to fund the daily running costs of the sanctuary from visitor fees. However, we have big plans to improve the chimps’ enclosures and to make life even better for them. So please do donate today, and we will keep you updated on how your donation helps improve the lives of our chimps!
