March 3rd – Worldwide Wildlife Day and Special Day for the monkeys repatriated from Zimbabwe

World Wildlife Day on March 3rd annually dedicates a celebration to all life on our planet. The yearly event is regarded as the most important, raising awareness about threatened and endangered plants and animals.

At J.A.C.K., all our residents result from the horrible wildlife trade and, therefore, today, is THEIR special day! J.A.C.K. was legally handed over by ICCN (DRC Wildlife Authority) the 20 monkeys that were repatriated from Zimbabwe a month ago! Keep in mind that this rescue represents the largest primate rescue ever made in Africa!

Many thanks again to the State of the DRC and to the different Wildlife Authorities of our country for their trust!
