The Chimps of Fauna Sanctuary
A True Story of Resilience and Recovery
by Andrew Westoll
Pages: 288
Publisher: --
Edition: 1st., 2011
Language: English
ISBN: 978-0547327808
Description
In 1997 Gloria Grow started a sanctuary for chimps retired from biomedical research on her farm outside Montreal. For the indomitable Gloria, caring for thirteen great apes is like presiding over a maximum security prison, a Zen sanctuary, an old folks’ home, and a New York deli during the lunchtime rush all rolled into one. But she is first and foremost creating a refuge for her troubled charges, a place where they can recover and begin to trust humans again.
Enjoy! :up:
