Overview
If you have a deep affection for monkeys and seek the chance to interact with them, then our sanctuary is tailor-made for you. Our facility provides a loving home to former pet and zoo primates, non-native to South Africa and unable to be reintroduced into the wild. Our utmost priority is ensuring these monkeys enjoy the highest possible quality of life. Some find joy in leaping through trees, while others yearn for human companionship, which we willingly provide to make them content.
Volunteer responsibilities also encompass tasks such as food preparation and cleaning, always in close proximity to our curious simian residents. Moreover, our sanctuary presents a valuable opportunity to gain insights into primate behavior and fulfill work experience or dissertation requirements.
For those enamored with monkeys, our sanctuary is a paradise, promising an unforgettable experience.
