Classed as Endangered according to the IUCN’s Red List, wild chimpanzee populations have experienced a significant decline over the last 30 years which is set to continue in the future if drastic action isn’t taken. Outbreaks of contagious diseases such as Ebola and anthrax, along with poaching, hunting for bushmeat and habitat loss are just some of threats chimpanzees face.
Young chimpanzees remain dependent on their mothers for up to 10 years. As a result, when adults are killed for bushmeat, offspring are often taken and sold as exotic pets.
Help care for chimpanzees in need with an animal adoption and you’ll receive an exclusive adoption pack containing all of these items…
Your own cuddly toy chimpanzee to keep at home.
Toy may vary from one shown.
Including a personalised certificate, animal story, fact sheet and glossy photo to display.
A copy of our bi-annual Wild Life magazine with exclusive updates.
Adoptions last one year (those paid monthly by direct debit roll over until cancelled).
Adopters will also receive a copy of our Wild Life magazine, published twice a year, which includes
updates on our animals and the impact you as a supporter has helped to deliver.

We will process and send your order within 3 working days, and would normally expect it to arrive within 7 working days to addresses within the UK. All UK orders are sent via Royal Mail 2nd class delivery. Please allow 28 days for delivery on overseas orders. Please note – we cannot hold orders for delivery on a specific date.
For overseas orders customs charges may be levied prior to delivery. We would suggest checking to see if these may apply before placing your order.
Orders do not need to be signed for, but come in a box which won’t fit through the letterbox so you will need to be available to accept the delivery. A card will be left if you’re unavailable.
The adoption certificate can be personalised with the name of your choice, and delivery arranged to a separate address.
