In accordance with new york post office, the chimpanzee never left the 1.5-square-meter cage or garage-sized enclosure until she moved into the shelter. Vanilla lived until the age of two in the laboratory, which closed in 1997. She was then transferred to California, where she was imprisoned in an orphanage that eventually went bankrupt in 2019.

“In California, Vanilla lived with five chimpanzees in a cage with wire fencing, no grass, and very little enrichment,” said primatologist Andrew Halloran. new york post office.
Vanilla’s new home is also home to 226 chimpanzees discarded by the entertainment industry, the exotic pet trade and zoos.
