The Limbe Wildlife Centre (LWC) is a wildlife rescue, rehabilitation and conservation education project and is situated in the South-West Region of Cameroon.
Overall our aims are to:
1.Rescue, rehabilitate and release wildlife rescued from the illegal wildlife trade. Furthermore, we work to ensure high quality veterinary care and animal husbandry standards for all animals.
2. Help secure the long-term survival of threatened and endangered species native to Cameroon. We do this through conservation education initiatives and alternative employment to hunting for the local community.
3. Work with law enforcement to combat the illegal bushmeat and wildlife trades.
We currently care fro 455 rescued animals including endangered species such as African grey parrots, chimpanzees, gorillas and drills. In this video, the rescued chimpanzees of our Mainland group are entertaining themselves with a root int heir enclosure. This video, in addition to being hilarious, shows the importance of structural enrichment for captive primates. Help us raise some funds to provide our rescued wildlife with the best possible care, enrichment, food and veterinary care by donating to limbewildlife.org/donate!
