The Foundation:
The Jane Goodall Institute of South Africa continues Dr Goodall's pioneering mission to prevent the extinction of chimpanzees through conservation, research, and education. The goal of the Jane Goodall Institute's chimpanzee sanctuary, Chimp Eden, is to rescue and protect chimpanzees that have been orphaned, survived the bush meat trade, traded in the illegal pet market and rescued from being traumatised for entertainment.
Established in 2006, Chimp Eden is the first and only chimpanzee sanctuary in South Africa. Situated outside Nelspruit, Chimp Eden is home to chimps that have been misplaced from their natural habitats in Africa. Here the primates spend their days in semi-wild surroundings, similar to their natural environment.
