We were prepared to bring an orthopedic surgeon to repair

Bushmeat in Central Africa

Bushmeat in Central Africa

Cameroon shares a border with Equatorial Guinea, and sadly, the bushmeat situation in the two countries is similar. We have slightly more enforcement in Cameroon, but not nearly enough. Note: This post contains a photo of a monkey carcass, on sale at a bush meat market, that may be disturbing to some readers. What's for dinner? Porcupines, giant sq

Bouboul at Sanaga-Yong

Eighteen-year-old Bouboule has lived at Sanaga-Yong Center since 2000 when IDA-Africa found him tied by his waist behind a village hut with a pig, his only friend. Miserable with scabies, the itchiest skin disease known to humans or chimpanzees, and desperate for a loving touch, he soon passed his skin disease to all his human caregivers at the Res
