Twelve years ago Claudine André founded the "Lola ya Bonobo"the "Paradise of the Bonobos." In this paradise Claudine and her staff raise orphan Bonobos whose parents have ended up as bushmeat on the markets of Congolese cities.

Claudine André spares them from a life as pets - squeezed alone into tiny cages. Most of the animals suffered great pain and it takes a lot of patience and time to rehabilitate them. But there are also moments of happiness, such as the first birth of a baby Bonobo in "Lola ya Bonobo".
