Rescued: 2 young mandrills escape a lifetime of cruelty

Two young mandrills were just rescued in a joint operation by law enforcement group LAGA and the Cameroon government. They arrived at Ape Action Africa on Tuesday, and are now safe in the forest sanctuary. 

Ngo and Mukete are both are male, estimated to be 3-4 years old, and underweight due to criminals rarely being concerned about providing proper food. Fortunately, they have no physical injuries, only the psychological trauma of being ripped from their families.

The two seem to get along well, and will spend their quarantine period together as they wait to meet their new mandrill family.

You can welcome them to the Ape Action Family with a donation today.
