I just want to rave a little about one of our sponsors, James Brooks. James has adopted, one of our little terrors, Boyoma. Since visiting bonobos in Iowa, he has raised $1200 for the Great Ape Trust. Which is impressive once you know that he is only 10. Yep, James raked leaves and gave up his allowance to raise money for great apes. I only wish I had been that concientious when I was 10. I think I was playing Donkey Kong all day.
Anyway, James wants me to let you know that he has made a website (can you believe it?) at www.apeaware.org This is what he says about it. ‘It is a site for both kids and adults since not many ape websites are there for kids. There are lots of things in the Fun Stuff section I think kids will like! Try the quiz! Please tell all kids and other ape lovers who you know who might interested about the site. Please sign the guestbook if you can!’ He signs all his messages ‘Bonobo fan’. This one is for you, James. It’s Mwanda getting tickled:)

Way to go James. You are the future for the protection of wildlife and the environment. You are certainly off to a grand start and your parents should be very proud of you.

What a sweet boy! Go James! Know that your efforts are truly appreciated…I wish more kids would get back to basics…and quit worrying about cell phones and video games! There is hope out there for animals to be taken care of by the next generations!
