Daycare Dads: The Art of Baby Chimp Sitting | Baby Ape Forest School

- Raising orphaned baby apes isn't a piece of cake! It involves long days in the hot, humid jungle, babysitting some rowdy little chimps as they get up to all kinds of mischief in their baby ape forest school - sometimes for months on end! This job takes a great amount of patience and the right kind of person - in this case, it's the two Chimp Daycare Dads Romain and Sanda of Ape Action Africa. Take a look at what it takes to be a gold-star Chimp Daycare Dad.
This segment was filmed at Mefou Primate Sanctuary in Cameroon run by GLOBIO Programs Partner Ape Action Africa. Visit bit.ly/ApeActionAfrica to learn more about their amazing work rescuing, saving, and caring for great apes and primates.
SPECIAL thanks to caregivers Romain and Sanda for their decades and dedications to caring for dozens of orphaned baby chimps.

All footage for this video was created before the Covid-19 pandemic forced new health & safety protocols. All footage was obtained through reputable, ethically-run wildlife sanctuaries dedicated to caring for their rescued primates and protecting their wild counterparts. Apes Like Us (under GLOBIO) and our partner programs in no way support the exploitation or trade of primates in any capacity (whether legal or illegal).
The sanctuary caretakers shown in this video are experts at caring for these vulnerable, orphaned apes until they are strong enough to join larger primate families at these sanctuaries. Any human contact with these infants is for the babies' physical and mental benefit only.

You are right to point out that doing this job is not as simple as people might think.

Thank you so much for your kindness and your empathy towards our beautiful ape relatives. We are so glad you're enjoying the videos.
These men are unsung heroes and deserve the deepest respect and (worldwide) acknowledgment for their hard and dedicated work. I hope they get paid very-very generously and their families are taken care of too, not only because they deserve a high salary and other benefits could encourage more local people to take part in conservation work. Thank you, guys, again and thank you for the video! The little rascal apes are adorable, of course! :-)

Just curious, about how old/big do the baby chimps get before they are too old/big to be handled and moved elsewhere? Or do they tend to still be affectionate with their foster moms and dads later in life too? There must be a point where it gets a lil scary to even play with them once big enough... It's amazing how much time and energy goes into helping these animals, the average person could never do it, but these blessed folks will see amazing things from these creatures that we'll never see either.
How can someone contribute to the everyday supplies for the caregivers?
Hi Shawn, so glad you're hoping to help the cause! You can make donations directly on Ape Action Africa's Website here: bit.ly/ApeActionAfrica
To the men and women who all these apes count on and wouldn't be here if not for you. The ones that walk the walk and talk the talk. God bless each and everyone of you. I only wish that I could be more involved. But I would like to donate what I can to such a worthy cause..
Restores my faith in human nature. It’s a shame it’s needed in the first place.
in forest school how do the trainers teach then to hunt colobus monkeys because chimps are also carnivores
Viva orangutans !!
Down with chimps...
chimps are the best
