GIVING DAY FOR APES – DOGUY, a vulnerable chimpanzee

GIVING DAY FOR APES – 6 days to go!

DOGUY is our one-eyed resident to whom we have dedicated this year’s GIVING DAY FOR APES campaign. Every single donation will help our sanctuary cover the different costs of this important surgery (cataract on his reamining eye!).

From the 16th of September on  till D-Day  of the GIVNG DAY FOR APES event(Sept.25) , we are going to tell you DOGUY’s story and how he faced eye issues. These are the different topics we have already talked about to introduce DOGUY:

1/ How DOGUY arrived at J.A.C.K.

2/ How DOGUY adjusted to his life at J.A.C.K.

3/ Beginning of DOGUY’s disease

Keep in mind that this huge fundraising event will give DOGUY  the chance of not becoming blind.

D  Day -6 / DOGUY,  A VULNERABLE CHIMPANZEE

For about a year, DOGUY’s disease in the right eye didn’t progress  and we were happy to see that, despite this handicap, DOGUY was living a normal chimpanzee life!

Unfortunately, the disease came back  and no treatment helped curing the disease. This eye issue seemed to provide DOGUY with some discomfort which made him become a vulnerable member of the group. His strongest friends  tried to bully him, but DOGUY had his Guardian Angel : ZAMBA!

 

Yes, ZAMBA had been DOGUY’s best friend since his quarantine period and she had been DOGUY’s protector and guide.
