Jungle Friends Primate Sanctuary

Jungle Friends Primate Sanctuary in Gainesville, Florida is a permanent home to over 238 new world monkeys who have been abused in lab research, confiscated by law enforcement, from the entertainment industry or are ex-pets. The problem is reaching epidemic proportions and we have an ever-growing waiting list. We are home to capuchins, marmosets, tamarins, spider monkeys, and squirrel monkeys on our 44 acre vegan property. Internships and sanctuary work available.

Monkeys make terrible pets and that is why you never see YouTube videos sharing monkey pet videos over 2 years old. By that age, they are no longer safe for their animals and are killed, locked in a basement cage forever, or even sold to have their brains be eaten alive. Those watching videos do not know that is the future of those pets. We provide forever homes in natural habitats for as many as we can. Some of ours are over 40 years old.
