Description

Rescue center of more than 450 hectares, located 30 km from the city of Iquitos in the Amazon jungle of Peru. It was created for the protection and preservation of monkeys. The purpose of this center is to rescue, rehabilitate and release the monkeys to their natural habitat.

Since 1997, the rescue center has been dedicated to caring for monkeys that have been victims of illegal animal trafficking. It promotes the freedom of animals, which should not be trapped in cages or be victims of illegal trade. Almost all the monkeys on the island are rescued. Yes, they are habituated to humans, and some may take longer to reintegrate, and others may need to remain in the rescue center. The installation is meant to remind people that wildlife must be respected, and they must continue in their natural habitat.

Important: The monkeys are free, and some might come close. In that case, you can interact with them, but we do not encourage the monkeys’ contact with people.

It is forbidden to feed them and the use of repellents and sunscreens.
