The Great Primate Handshake – Volunteer in Africa, working to conserve monkeys and apes through film and educational content production

The Animal Planet series “Growng Up Baboon” recently aired in the United States – having received praise for its message of support in helping to raise awareness of Chacma Baboon conservation activities in South Africa.

You can view videos from the series on HowStuffWorks, or alternatively, take a look at CARE’s work & Chacma Baboon conservation initiatives in Cape Town through the eyes of Handshake volunteers:

The Handshake will be visiting CARE again this September during the upcoming South African expedition, as we continue to produce vital educational video content and help to develop CARE’s website.

CARE also accept volunteers throughout the year. You can learn more about their work at http://www.primatecare.org.za/
