OK, so this isn’t a real Take Action Tuesday post, but check out that spiffy new banner!
Speaking of new things, you really should go check out the Eyes on Apes website. It’s gotten a whole new makeover with an updated homepage (www.eyesonapes.org) and is chock-full of lots of great information on the Learn More pages. There’s a different page on the each issue that apes face, and they all have links throughout the bullet points—be sure to check those out. There’s some PDFs of scholarly articles and links to conservation strategies and action plans that make for really great resources. Also under the Learn More section is a page about Useful Links, and the name doesn’t lie! Lots of great info on other sites that you can check out to further your education.
I updated the Videos page too, so take a look at those… and also of this one below that we’ve put together to promote the program. Share it with your friends and get them to join Eyes on Apes and make a difference for apes everywhere!

The before and now pictures are just stunning.
We all need to do what we can to help those who are still in lab situations, as pets who are locked away and those in the entertainment industry.
Eyes on Apes is the go to place for information on how to help. Please if you have any questions…. Ask. Eyes on Apes will answer any questions you might have.
