Chimpanzee Sanctuary

Two hours into Lake Victoria with horizontal rain, wind and dark skies (on a tiny boat), we finally crossed the equator and reached Ngamba Island.

Absolutely amazing place. The chimps here are all confiscated from the mainland and have been trafficked or kept as pets. They are all orphans and live in a small forest on the island.  Staff are well trained and they have access to amazing veterinary facilities on the island.  Just watch out you don't get hit by a rock from a mischievous chimp!
