The authorities exchanged him to the zoo in Ivory Coast’s biggest city, Abidjan, where at first he was put in isolate which implied that he was allowed to sit unbothered during the evening.

When I saw him again last March, he appeared to have put on weight and some certainty and was obviously holding with one of his attendants.

Nemley Jr

Be that as it may, soon subsequently Nemley was set in a pen with different chimpanzees with the expectation that a more established female, Kiki, would “embrace” him as she had with other youthful chimps.

Be that as it may, in the occasion she demonstrated no enthusiasm for Nemley, and in spite of the fact that a substantially more youthful female paid him some consideration, this did not add up to an appropriate family holding.

The predicament of Nemley junior highlights not just the pitiless and mystery exchange baby chimpanzees additionally the test of nurturing creatures that are safeguarded.

Ivory Coast does not have a devoted asylum for chimpanzees seized from traffickers where authority care can be given.
