Rachel (being hugged in the photo), an Assamese macaque, arrived at ACRES Lao Wildlife Sanctuary 6 months ago. She was rescued from the wildlife trade and her mother was most likely killed. Rachel has spent the first few months of her life caged up as a pet and we need your help to give her a second chance at life.
Rachel now lives with her adopted family of macaques at the Sanctuary. The group amazingly accepted her within 10 minutes and they are now very protective over her! But we want to ...

Almost 2 years ago we met this stump tailed macaque in Laos and promised her a better life. It has taken years of work, tears and sweat but we finally delivered on our promise. This week, for the first time, she felt what it was like to touch grass and see the sky. She unfortunately can’t be released into the wild yet, but at least she and her 3 friends now have a much better life.
A big thank you to the ACRES Team in Lao PDR for making this dream possible for the macaques and for all the v...
