Description:
|
|
|
The CHEETA Primate Sanctuary is a desert haven that provides residence and lifelong care
and rehabilitation for homeless and unwanted ex-show business primates. There are
chimpanzees, orangutans, and monkeys at our desert refuge.
The founder of the sanctuary
created the shelter after he received custody of Cheeta. Cheeta is a chimpanzee that
performed in the old black-and-white Tarzan movies from the 1930's and 1940's.
All of
the animals at the sanctuary are treated with love and kindness. The animals are provided
with a stimulating environment and given activities that stir their intellect and
curiosity.
You can help us support the sanctuary by making a donation. We are a
501(c)(3) non-profit; all funds go directly into the care of our animal friends and upkeep
of the sanctuary. Your donations are tax deductible.
