Heart Melting! These Chimps Are Seeing Sunlight For The First Time!

Posted on August 29, 2014 by lurulusa

These chimpanzees have been born in captivity or were kidnapped from African jungles as babies… They spent their lives locked in metal laboratory cages to be used in a long series of experiments in Europe.

They are now in a sanctuary in Austria called Gut Aiderbichl. This video shows the very first time they saw sunlight and got a taste of freedom… Priceless…

    What a touching video to share! Thank you! Do you know by chance how they were able to find them? Were they being held illegally?

    After a few minutes, it looks like they all pretty much said “meh, what’s the big deal?”

    Comme ils ont peur, se demandant encore ce que l’homme leur réserve comme traquenard. Vous vous rendez compte : le soleil en vrai, qui chauffe leurs mains, les pierres du sol, le béton, l’herbe, ils ne connaissaient rien de tout celà. Rappelez-vous les chiens qu’on avait sortis des cages et qui n’osaient pas aller sur l’herbe, un premier est sorti après les autres l’ont imité et sont allés vers les mains des hommmes qui se tendaient pour la première fois pour leur faire des caresses…….La LIBERTE
