In honor of Dr. Jane Goodall
Our heartfelt thanks to Chris Lewis for sponsoring this day of sanctuary for the chimpanzees and cows in honor of Dr. Jane Goodall:
“Thank you Dr. Goodall for all you did for chimps around the world.”
Our deeply saddened hearts join those the world over in mourning the loss of Dr. Jane Goodall. Thank you so much, Chris, for thinking of the sanctuary residents in honoring her extraordinary life and legacy she shared with us all.
Negra (above), Annie, and Jody were all born in Africa before being captured as infants and shipped to the US for use in biomedical research. Just imagine if they’d been able to live the lives they were meant to with their families in the wild.
