Chimp Haven is a permanent home for chimpanzees. Conceived, designed and
operated by the nation's renowned chimpanzee experts, the sanctuary and its
experienced team are devoted to the well being all of each individual
chimpanzee. Created out of need, Chimp Haven provides a cost-effective solution
to the growing challenge of where to send chimpanzees who are no longer wanted.
After years in biomedical research or as pets and entertainers, the chimpanzees
now have a special home of their own.
Chimp Haven occupies 200 forested
acres within a 1,200 acre nature park in Northwest Louisiana. As many as 300
chimpanzees can live here much like they would in the wild - roaming acres of
wooded habitats, relaxing in soft nests with companions or climbing high into
the trees.
The United States government has selected Chimp Haven as the
National Chimpanzee Sanctuary. Private dollars are necessary to match the
federal funding, which means your contribution is critical to the success of
