Sweden Chimpanzee Trust

Tack alla ni som förnyat era adoptioner till de schimpanser som lever i reservatet J.A.C.K. och ni som bidragit med en slant ❤
Den här gången hade vi möjlighet att sända 15 000 kronor.
De betyder enormt och är en liten livlina i dessa svåra tider då allt blivit mycket dyrare. Fler individer har konfiskerats och fler väntas inkomma så behovet av hjälp är enormt stort.

Bunia behöver din hjälp då hon måste opereras akut. 💜

”CESAR”, the other chimpanzee who was to be repatriated with Justine, is doing well and is still waiting to leave Likati (2 days on a motorcycle before arriving in Kisangani) to then take a plane for Kinshasa and another for Lubumbashi.
More than 5000 km await him and we will let you know the start of its journey. We are still waiting for news on “CESAR” from the person who takes care of him in the forest!
Please be aware that although we were unable to repatriate Justine, other individuals remain on our repatriation list. We still need you because they need care (food, vets) and we also need to build new facilities to shelter them all! Our cold seasona is coming! These animals that come out of the hot and humid forest of the DRC do not like the thermal amplitudes that we know here in Lubumbashi and therefore they urgently need a warm building for the night!
Make a gesture and help us to better supervise CESAR and the others! THEY NEED YOU URGENTLY!!!

Ranya Nirvan, the only glass painting artist in Sierra Leone🙌

Dates: May 10 – May 14
Free Entrance

Vi har haft ett mycket speciellt besök de senaste dagarna. En av våra sponsorer, David Higgs från Olsen Animal Trust i Storbritannien. Han gjorde en lång resa för att komma och hälsa på oss och delta i vårat dagliga arbete, och se våra svårigheter i Lubumbashi. Han uppskattade vårt kvalitativa arbete. 💕 För att läsa mer om deras fantastiska arbete, besök www.olsenanimaltrust.org

Sierra Leone’s President Julius Maada Bio recently visited the Guma Valley Dam, where there has been massive deforestation and encroachment, to call for re-establishment of the Green Belt. He also urged the police and military to work with stakeholders and engage village headmen to protect the environment and water catchment area.

The Guma Valley system supplies over 90% of the total water supply from a single source, to over 1.5 million people in Freetown. This water catchment is heavily threatened by these land encroachments.

“The Western Area Forest Green Belt area is an implementation of Parliament. So, the land is protected by law. We are going to re-establish the GreenBelt and protect it,” he proclaimed.

On this 61st Independence Day for Sierra Leone, we want to emphasize the need to take pride in our natural resources. We are hopeful that the government of Sierra Leone will act quickly and urgently on these commitments to establish the Green Belt and park boundary and this would be a welcome and necessary gift to the people of Salone.

Happy Independence Day! 💕🇸🇱
