Friends of Abidjan Zoo

We are a group of primatologists, biologists, veterinarians and concerned lay-people from all over the world. Our aim is to raise money to improve the living conditions of the animals in Abidjan Zoo (Côte d’Ivoire, West Africa). This blog will be updated frequently with news and photographs of the baby chimpanzee Fanta, and the other animals we are helping.

Wir sind eine internationale Gruppe von Primatologen, Biologen, Tiermedizinern und angagierten Laien. Unser Ziel ist es, die nötigen finanziellen Mittel zur Verbesserung der katastrophalen Lebensbedingungen der Tier im Zoo von Abidjan an der Elfenbeinküste (Westafrika) zu verbessern. Einige von uns versuchen, von Europa aus etwas für den Zoo in Abidjan zu tun, andere sind direkt vor Ort und können so den sinnvollen Einsatz von Geldern für die Tiere überwachen und mitgestalten. Auf dieser Seite finden Sie regelmäßig Neuigkeiten und Fotos unseres Schimpansenkindes Fanta und den anderen Tieren des Zoos und können so den Fortschritt unserer Arbeit mitverfolgen.
