Congo in safe hands

Meet Congo, a chimp rescued a month ago, held in captivity by military men.

We were responsible to transport Congo to a chimp sanctuary in Bukavu.

Rescued by military men or by rangers? How did Congo, who appears quite charming, end up separated from his family?

I’m glad he’s safely at sanctuary.
