✨The chimpanzees at Tchimpounga always stick to their New Year’s resolution to eat healthy — mostly because their expert caregivers make it easy for them! 🍌 🛶 Every day, our dedicated team delivers boatloads of fresh, locally grown produce to their island sanctuaries. From bananas to sweet potatoes, this nutrient-packed feast helps keep the rescued chimpanzees happy, healthy, and thriving. 🌿🐵 But this isn’t just about the chimpanzees — by sourcing food from local farmers, we’re also supporting sustainable agriculture and strengthening our surrounding communities. 💚 As you dive into your resolutions, you can take a leaf (or a banana peel!) out of the Tchimpounga’s book by incorporating more fresh, local produce into your diet. It’s good for your health and for the planet. 🌍✨ *Dr. Goodall and the Jane Goodall Institute do not endorse handling or close proximity to wildlife. This represents a sanctuary context with trained professionals.* #JGI #JaneGoodall #Conservation #Tchimpounga #Chimpanzee 📸: Fernando Turmo . . .

🥰🌹 It’s always exciting to see the possibility of “romance” brewing at Tchimpounga sanctuary! But with romance comes the sting of rejection, as our friend Jeje is learning. As Jeje (photo 1) has gotten older, two female chimpanzees, Nzounzou and Zimbana (photos 2 3, respectively), have caught his attention as he follows his biological instinct to mate. Nzounzou and Zimbana prefer to sleep in the forest on the protected Ngombe Island and rarely return to the indoor sleeping area where many of their friends spend the night. To show his interest, Jeje has begun to join them, trying to build his nest in the same tree as theirs. 🌳🌿 However, the two are clearly not impressed by his advances. In fact, they can turn very aggressive if he gets too close. Soon, Jeje must learn when to move on — we wish him luck finding a match 💞 Help support Jeje and the other rescued chimpanzees of Tchimpounga by becoming or gifting a Chimpanzee Guardian today!

🌍✨ Uganda—often called “the pearl of Africa”—is a land of breathtaking beauty, where misty mountains meet lush forests teeming with life. During her recent visit, JGI USA Executive Director Anna Rathmann joined JGI-Uganda’s Executive Director James Byamukama, and Vice President of Africa Programs Alice Macharia to witness firsthand the remarkable conservation efforts unfolding across the country through the work of JGI Uganda. From collaborating with partners to better understand and protect wild chimpanzee populations in the iconic Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park to restoring vital habitats through reforestation projects, every JGI Uganda initiative reflects a deep commitment to safeguarding Uganda’s natural heritage. 🌱✨ They met with park officials working tirelessly to protect Uganda’s remarkable biodiversity (including the amazing opportunity to go gorilla trekking in Bwindi), visited reforestation sites where geo-tagged saplings are carefully monitored, and connected with students from the Roots & Shoots program—a youth-led movement now empowering over 10,000 young changemakers across Uganda. As Dr. Jane Goodall reminds us, “Every individual matters, every individual has a role to play, and every individual makes a difference.” In Uganda, that difference is seen in every tree planted, every habitat restored, and every young person inspired to build a better future. 💚🌿 📸 JGI Uganda/Kennedy Kitandwe . . . #JaneGoodall #JaneGoodallInstitute #JGI #Conservation #HopeInAction #Uganda #RootsAndShoots #Biodiversity #WildlifeProtection #Reforestation

Thank you to @ParamountPics for hosting the Jane Goodall Institute team at an early screening of the biopic #BetterManMovie, which stars a CGI chimpanzee 🐵 to uniquely portray the life of British pop icon Robbie Williams 🎤 While Robbie Williams’ character is quite the departure from the chimpanzees that the Jane Goodall Institute studies and protects in the wild, we can appreciate the director’s unique approach and the opportunity to highlight connections between humans and our close genetic cousins! Chimpanzees have always been rockstars to us 🐵✨ #BetterManMovie @BetterManMovie
