Bonobos are great apes and they are found only in the Democratic Republic of Congo. They are endangered and may become extinct in the next 75 years. 

But we can stop that from happening.

DONATE

​Lola ya Bonobo is the world’s only organization to:

1. Provide a sanctuary for orphaned bonobos
2. Successfully release bonobos back into the wild

We are on the front line in the battle to protect bonobos in the only country they are found – The Democratic Republic of Congo.

Meet Lomela

​Lomela was found with two other bonobos in Lodja, a small town near a forest rich with wildlife, as well as diamond mines. Of the three orphans, only Lomela made it to the sanctuary.
