Chimpanzee Conservation Center

The Chimpanzee Conservation Center (CCC) is a chimpanzee sanctuary located in the National Park of the Upper Niger in Guinea. The CCC has three goals: first, to rescue orphaned chimpanzees and give them the best possible living conditions while rehabilitating them for life in the wild; second, to release the rehabilitated chimpanzees back into the wild; and third, to educate the local people about the threat of extinction of these chimpanzees in order to fight against illegal trafficking and poaching. The CCC is supported by Project Primate, Inc and Projet Primates France, non-profit organizations in the United States and France.
