As an avid animal lover and college primatology student, there is a huge epidemic occurring in South America, Africa and Asia. Many of the 200+ primate species are either endangered or vulnerable to extinction. As the need bushmeat industry continues to grow, many apes and monkeys are teatering on the edge of extinction. Many of the great apes, which are our closest living ancestors are most threatened. The common chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) and the bonobo chimpanzee (Pan paniscus) as well as Mountain gorillas and both the bornean and sumatran orangutans are losing precious time. There are many different sites that will accept donations, time etc.... Check it out...........I want my kids to know what a chimpanzee or a gorilla is.
