I was re-united with two of my children, Sara and Nico after I was rescued by MONA and have adopted three other little monkeys since then who keep me very busy!
Nico
I was born in 2001 and have a unique temperament and distinctive expression which resembles Toni. It is very likely that Toni is my dad, but the staff are not absolutely sure.
Marco
I love foraging for food which I have learned how to extract from the holes in the logs in my enclosure. I am the leader of the bachelor group, but I have an easy does it leadership style.
Jaunito
Although I am very small I am full of confidence and love to mix with my new family here at the MONA Chimpanzee Rescue Centre.
Charly
My MONA friends say I am very intelligent and to be frank, I have to agree. Although I am very independent, I am also very affectionate with the other members of the group.
Bongo
I am only four years old and was rescued from a travelling circus with Waty. I love playing with and tormenting my adoptive mother Romie and my big sister Waty.
Sara
I have integrated well into the family group at MONA where I have been re-united with my mum Romie and have formed a close friendship with Waty, who is a similar age.
Toni
I am a great character and love to communicate and play with my friends in the bachelor group at MONA and with my caretakers too.
Toto
I was born in the wild but spent many years in various German Zoos. The last three years I have been kept on my own and recently moved to MONA from Frankfurt Zoo.
Waty
After a few difficulties interacting socially with Romie and Bongo when I arrived due to my nervousness, I am now starting to tumble and play with them.
Africa Rescue
TV vet Dr. Scott Miller joined us to rescue Africa from a home in Gran Canaria on 3rd June 2009. Thanks to all of you who supported MONA with donations and made her rescue
MONA Staff and Volunteers
MONA is a small charity run by dedicated individuals. We need your support so that we can continue to rescue more primates suffering in captivity.
The Mona Foundation's mission is to end the exploitation of primates in captivity. The foundation has established a sanctuary near Girona in Spain, which provides a home where rescued chimpanzees and other primates can live in a natural environment and where people can be inspired to understand and respect wild animals.
MONA are dedicated to:
* The rescue of primates suffering in captivity * Working to end the abuse of primates in captivity
* Promoting the welfare & conservation of primates * Promoting respect & understanding of primates
Come and join us at our sanctuary near Girona in Northern Spain for a volunteering holiday that will change your life and help us rescue more primates in need. We are offering a unique experience where guests gain a wonderful insight into the daily lives of our rescued primates. We are one of the only primate rescue centres outside of Africa where you get the unique opportunity to experience working with chimpanzees and our barbary macaques. Follow MONA on these Networks
