Baby Chino (Capuchin) arrives at the sanctuary

                                                   Seven week old Chino (Capuchin)

On the 4^th February, we received a call from a distraught owner of a seven week old Capuchin.  She said that she had purchased the baby four days ago and now realized that she had made a mistake.  It was agreed that we would take him.  Within hours, we were traveling to Polokwane to collect the baby.  Since it was a six hour round trip, we arrived back late at night with adorable little Chino.  He was understandably confused and bewildered on his first night with us.  Volunteers are taking it in turns to care for him during the night because he is still on two hourly feeds.  Later this year, we will be receiving more Capuchins and will introduce him when he is old enough.
