A 20-year ban on industrial logging will soon be lifted in the Congo Basin, opening up the only home of endangered bonobos to even greater threats from deforestation.
Without their rainforest home, these gentle apes won't survive.
But there’s a surefire way to save these bonobos: secure official protection for 2 million acres of this rainforest, and defend it from loggers.
And we can do this for just $1 per acre!
If enough of us chip in, our friends at the Bonobo Conservation Initiative can start securing tens of thousands of acres of critical bonobo habitat -- can you help save these bonobos?
