Our registered charity, The Great Ape Fund, was established by Dr. Bowman to generate funding for projects in the field. Visit our Fund page, where you can find more information about this fund.

The situation facing the great apes today, calls for support from the developed nations like Canada and the USA, and the many European nations. It is the support from nations like these that will eventually make the difference in saving the apes from extinction. Many of the people in the African countries where the unsustainable hunting is occurring, know that they need help, but do not have the resources or funding to help put an end to it. We must encourage our governments and politicians to become involved in something that will have a global effect.

What does it say about humans who are wiping out their very own closest relatives? These creatures do not just belong to the people in these countries around the world, like those in Africa, but to all of us. It is our obligation as citizens of developed nations to do whatever we can, from wherever it is that we live, to aid in this difficult battle to end this most urgent crisis.

Please bookmark our site, and pass our URL to as many people as you possibly can. Read through the pages and find out some of the things that you can do. There are a large number of people working right now to help the great apes, and they need our support. As you are sitting at home or work, and you are reading these pages, just take a moment and think about what a great loss it would be if we did nothing, and stood by as the great apes became extinct. This could be a distinct reality in the next few decades, or sooner.

 We hope that, after reading the many links to the articles, and visiting the numerous rich and fascinating sites, that you will have begun to realize what the great apes are up against, and what must be done to protect them.
