Jungle Friends Primate Sanctuary offers permanent, high-quality care for New World monkeys retired from laboratory research, ex-pets, or those confiscated by authorities. The sanctuary is dedicated to advocacy and education for all captive non-human primates, aiming to improve their circumstances. Collaborating with a national network of credible animal sanctuaries and organizations, Jungle Friends seeks to combat the exploitation and mistreatment of primates. Visitors and volunteers consistently express admiration for the sanctuary, noting it is carefully maintained by experts who prioritize the comfort and needs of the monkeys. Reviewers highlight the joy and health of the monkeys, describing them as happy and well-loved. Private tours allow guests to learn about the monkeys' stories, and visitors appreciate the opportunity to interact with the animals, such as feeding them cashews. Each tour contributes to funding food, medical care, and habitat maintenance for the monkeys. The sanctuary is a heartwarming place, filled with compassion for the monkeys and a commitment to their well-being. Donations and tours are encouraged to support the sanctuary's mission and create awareness about the care of these fortunate primates.
Kari and her team have curated an incredible sanctuary for these rescued monkeys to live out long, happy, and social lives together. Staff was not only pleasant and accommodating to my group, but knowledgable and intentional with their care of the primates. Very inspiring place, highly recommend volunteering!
