Eden

Fire, smoke, hunted to extinction this is the life chimpanzees are facing around the globe. Their habitats are being ripped apart by human influence and are subject to fetish in the media or as pets. They are our closest living relatives but still remain wild, untamed and uninhibited. We look at how similar and how different chimps are and how Chimp Eden in Nelspruit is fighting the wave of cruelty by rescuing abused chimps from across the continent.
