💛 Thank You for Your Incredible Support 💛

We’re absolutely overwhelmed by the kindness shown since our appeal for Fortisip donations for our chimpanzees.

Thanks to your generosity, we are now fully stocked and have received enough supplies to support their care for the foreseeable future. Because of this, we are unable to accept any further Fortisip donations at this time.

Every donation has meant so much to our team, and most importantly, has helped us provide the very best care for our chimpanzees. 🐵

From all of us at Wingham Wildlife Park, thank you for rallying behind our animals once again. Your support never ceases to amaze us. ❤️
