“These are the orphans, confiscated from illegal traders, that make up the population of at least nine sanctuaries. It is the same in Asia where several sanctuaries receive a never-ending series of pathetic infants whose mothers are killed after coming into contact with illegal loggers or as a result of the terrible fires that drive them out of the forest. 90% of the apes photographed for this book are orphans from the bushmeat or pet trade. Many of them have seen their mothers killed, and sometimes butchered, in front of their eyes. Each individual ape has his or her own tragic story of pain and trauma. Each one is different. ~ Jane Goodall”
