To celebrate Save the Chimps hosting its first Member Day in three years, WPTV interviewed STC’s CEO Ana Paula Tavares about the sanctuary. The broadcast and accompanying article discuss how precautions were needed since chimps are susceptible to COVID-19, but with dropping cases, the sanctuary has finally been able to reopen. Tavares also discusses the sanctuary’s mission to provide chimps with a dignified “retirement” after years of suffering in places like biomedical labs.
