About Me |
|
| Jungle Friends Primate Sanctuary is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, located on 12 acres in Gainesville, Florida. *click on VIDEOS to meet some of our monkeys.* Jungle Friends is accredited by the American Sanctuary Association and The Association Of Sanctuaries. We rescue and offer a permanent, safe haven for monkeys from around the United States who have been abused, confiscated by authorities, retired from research, or who are ex-pets. At this time, Jungle Friends is the sanctuary home for 90 monkeys (White faced Capuchins, Brown Tufted Capuchins, Cinnamon Capuchins, Weeper Capuchins, Spider Monkeys, Squirrel Monkeys, Common Marmosets, Golden-Handed Tamarins and Cotton-Top Tamarins) and we have an ever-growing waiting list! We at Jungle Friends are opposed to monkeys being bred, sold and kept as 'pets'. We do not breed monkeys, and aim to educate those who think that buying a 'pet' monkey is a good idea.Please visit our website to get to know all of our amazing primate friends through their online bios, and see how all of this 'monkey buisness' at Jungle Friends got started. Be sure to visit our Jungle Store on the website. We now have t-shirts, sweatshirts, hats, totes -- well, lots of great monkey stuff! Join our mailing list to receive our FREE Monkey Newsletters, and keep up to date with the latest and greatest news concerning our monkey friends. Also visit our Jungle Friends eBay Store . We now have ‘Adoption Packets’. This consists of a Certificate of Adoption with the monkey’s bio, an 8 x 10 photo, our new “Born to be Wild Too” DVD and a newsletter. The ‘Adoption Packets’ are available for a donation of only $25! The adoption packets make great gifts! We can also include a card from you and the adopted monkey!I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 |

Heroes:Each one of our amazing survivors...Meet Buddy Boy, a blind Squirrel Monkey retired from laboratory research. Along with his companions, Giblert Mcreedy, Moses, and Howard, Buddy Boy arrived here at Jungle friends back in August '04. Buddy Boy is finally able to enjoy the warmth of the sun on his back, so much so that it is often difficult to coerse him back into his indoor enclosure. We all hold a special place for Buddy Boy in our hearts. Meet Macy, a highly spirited little white-faced capuchin who loves nothing more than to play. Macy was born into the exotic-pet trade and stolen from the arms of her mother when she was just an infant to be sold as a 'pet'. When Macy was a few years old she began to self-mutilate, her 'owners' then realized it was best for her to live with other monkeys. Macy arrived at Jungle friends in April '06. Since her arrival, Macy has made the best of friends with her pal Christopher, a male white-faced capuchin. Meet Einstein, a male cotton-top tamarin. In the wild, cotton-top tamarins are severly endangered as a result of encroaching habitat destruction, use for medical research, and capturing for the exotic-pet trade. Einstein and his companion Tara, a female cotton-top, were known only as numbers #74 and #75, and were kept in rusty cages inside a dark warehouse to breed for the exotic-pet trade. Their babies were stolen from them only weeks after their birth to become somebody's 'pet'. When their 'owner' died, Jungle Friends was contacted. Since their arrival, Einstein and Tara have made a wonderful life for themselves in "Munchkin Land,' an area set aside for Marmosets and Tamarins. "Each one of us matters, has a role to play and makes a difference. Each one of us must take responsibility for our own lives, and above all, show respect and love for all living things around us, especially each other. Together we must reestablish our connections with the natural world and with the Spiritual Power that is around us. And then we can move, triumphantly, joyously, into the final stage of human evolution--spiritual evolution." --Dr. Jane Goodall |
