We are happy to announce the arrival of Limbani, the newest and youngest member of our Save the Chimps family.
At just 8 years old, Limbani has spent his life in private ownership and is now taking the first steps toward a future of companionship with other chimpanzees. Limbani’s owner, guided by a heartfelt desire to give him the life he deserves, made the difficult but compassionate decision to entrust him to us. Save the Chimps’ dedicated veterinarians and care staff traveled to Miami to ensure a safe and comfortable journey for Limbani to his new home.
Limbani will spend time in our Special Needs Play Yards as our veterinary and behavioral teams assess his health and prepare him for life among other chimpanzees. This transition will help him acclimate to the sanctuary and ensure that when he joins one of our chimp families on their island habitats, it will be the perfect fit.
Limbani has already captured our hearts. Upon arrival, he entered his new home with boundless energy—playing chase, spinning on hanging toys, climbing bamboo, and fully exploring his play yard. He was offered a variety of nutritious foods and especially enjoyed colorful mini-peppers and a delicious cup of oatmeal.
We are honored to welcome Limbani to our sanctuary family. With your support, we can provide him and other chimpanzees with spacious habitats, fresh and nutritious food, loving companionship, and personalized care.
