A post from today's Instagram

A miracle in time for Christmas A critically endangered Western Chimpanzee was born late Saturday/early Sunday morning here at WWP and is doing brilliantly with Mum, Tara. It is very early days and usually we wouldn't post so soon but we wanted to be the first to let you know, especially as Tara has got the little one out and about with her and the troop. We are thrilled to welcome this precious little one and will keep you updated on their progress and if they're a little boy or girl soon.
