This week I was honored to be a speaker at the Big Cat Sanctuary Alliance's conference in San Diego, CA.
Thanks to the passage of the Big Cat Public Safety Act, the exploitation of big cats has ended in many ways, and big cat sanctuaries foresee less of a demand of their services in the future. I was there to let them know about high numbers of monkeys awaiting sanctuary retirement, and I urged them to consider expanding to welcome more monkeys in the coming years.
I learned so much about what non-primate sanctuaries face, and even more about the similarities between our worlds. Here's to hoping we continue collaborating together, and rescue more monkeys!
