    That property owner nd keeper should be charger with endangering her. The keeper did all that on purpose. He left her out, fed her and made sure the gates were open..... it makes me so angry 😤. I can only imagine what Jeremy real said to him, I hope he told him off. I did notice the keeper was nowhere to be seen while they finally removed her.
    THANK GOD FOR MONKEY WORLD AND THEIR TEAM!!! SAVING ONE PRIMATE AT A TIME!!!

      can you imagine how that would have played out in America?? there would be shot Monkey World employees and bystanders with bumbling, useless cops staring at their phones while a wild chimpanzee runs loose thru town.
      then everyone would sue each other and the evil landowner would 100% win every single case

      This was so bad.
      All for some money as usual...shame on them.
      Kalu is 99.98 % just like humans.
      Not appropriate.
      It's really NOT an animal that can be considered any human's property.
      Although by English Law...small monkeys still are too...given the pet trade in primates STILL going on in a country that considers itself SO civilized?
      Like so may other countries that allow this.
      Simply put,
      It was like the new owners of Broadlands were trying to sell or hold a human being ransom.
      They waited until the last moment did they?
      What stars!
      No.
      Nothing to do with what Kalu deserved in life and only RANDsome or some RAND
      At least I think the SA judges and cops stood up for what's right in this situation?
      It could have been a total disaster when she fell from the tree!
      Lucky for Kalu and her team she made it "home" to meet her own kind again in this life.
      Very lucky for her.
      Much love to all the people in SA who cared for Kalu and the team from Monkey World who rescued her.

    Wow...How *dramatic* ...My heart's *pounding* so fast...When Kalu hit the ground & didn't move, I literally felt weak in the knees...Then my heart got heavier imagining the tremendous stress that Alison & Jeremy endured during this entire difficult rescue effort...Now I'm really looking forward to learning all about Kalu & how long they think it might take for her (& the other chimps) to be ready for integration...I pray she's still taking a big interest in her new surroundings, & that the other chimps in her intended group will welcome her...I imagine she'll be quite nervous in the beginning...❣

      I agree. There was absolutely NO REASON for them to lock the gate and obstruct Jeremy and Allison from trying to rescue beautiful Kalu. Nothing but pure, selfish GREED. Now, the only thing they have achieved is making this experience that much more stressful for both Kalu AND her rescuers. SHAME on this person. I am glad Kalu is safely away with Allison and Jeremy now. The new owners should ABSOLUTELY be punished for this.

    I hate to think of that money- grubbing so and so buying that woman’s farm. She loved her animals, but he has dollar signs in his eyes. The new farm owner wanted $150,000 Rand to release chimp Kalu
    ( Extortion!) That equates to $7,642.34 U.S. and 6,098.35 Pounds. As a 40 year old female, Kalu is at the end of her life span although some live longer. Chimps on the black market can go for around $12,500. So the new owner thought he could cash in. Sad. I was appalled at the filthy, rundown space that was supposed to be her bedroom. What a contrast that was to the wonderful indoor enclosures the Monkey World Chimps have. I’m so glad Kalu will live out her last years in a much better environment with companionship of her own kind.

    Her keeper needs his bum kicked, he was told (knowing Allison and Jeremy) more then once what to do and NOT what to do and everything he was told not to do he did! Then the gates really WHY?? Then the person that bought the place tried to get money for a chimpanzee that he didn’t even want 🤯 just for a couple of dollars. WHAT IS WRONG WITH SOME PEOPLE? Her keeper probably knew he will no longer have a job so why help Allison. Allison you go Ma’am and this is the reason that I love monkey world 🌎 and it’s number 1 on my bucket list ❤❤

I want to be mad at her handler too but first of all they are in south africa things are obviously done little bit differently ( hence police not waiting for court papers cause they didn't have to) and we dont know if the actual owner was responsible for everything that went wrong either by forcing the handler or even doing those things him or herself. Like i said its a different world there and things are done differently yes they have laws many of them but there are lots a things that are done kind of like in the wild wild west old days, and for the wealthy there they typically do what they want paying off the officials when necessary
