January
- December
The
new Gorilla night house is almost completed. During the past few month
the walls made out of mesh panel modules have been erected and welded
together, 9 sliding doors have been constructed and. Now the details
like flooring and the door shutters are completed and implemented. In
order to separate the gorillas from the adult chimps a wall is being
erected between the two enclosures. Massive rain falls in March and
the constant power cuts slowed the construction work down. However,
though we still plan to move the Gorillas beginning of May in the new
house with a temporary outdoor yard.


Mangabey
Enclosure
A
part from the Gorilla night house a new mangabey enclosure is presently
in construction. Since the mangabey's old home is located in side the
new gorilla outdoor yard, they will find a new home on the island across
the Limbe River.

New
Kitchen
The
construction team has finished the new food preparation building that
includes the banana storage room and new staff changing quarters. All
the staff, especially our food prep personnel, are thrilled about the
new kitchen facilities. The new area is bigger, brighter, and constructed
so that food preparation and general hygiene will be easily carried
out.
Education
Centre Building

The
new education centre building continues to be used by school and local
youthgroups as well as for presentations and and training workshops.
All the doors are now installed and functional. But work still needs
to be done to complete the building and we are currently looking for
donations in kind to equip the facility and finish the building.
