WELCOME

Welcome to International Primate Rescue – where compassion meets action! Nestled near Pretoria, South Africa, we are more than just a sanctuary; we’re a passionate community dedicated to caring for a diverse range of rescued monkey species.

Are you an animal enthusiast with a soft spot for monkeys? If you’re ready to transform your passion into purpose, volunteering with us at International Primate Rescue is the adventure you’ve been seeking! Join our team, and together, we’ll not only give you an unforgettable experience but also the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of these incredible animals.

Come be a part of our mission! By volunteering at IPR, you’re not just helping us, you’re directly contributing to the well-being of these remarkable primates. Let’s make a positive impact together – volunteer with us and let the rewarding journey begin!

  • This troop of capuchins were confiscated some time ago from a zoo and now have a few enclosures with a small network of tunnels through the trees, at their forever home with us. Here they are playing with some new balls, kindly donated by volunteers 😀.

  • Enrichment is such an important part of the wellbeing for any animal in captivity and these guys are certainly enjoying their new toys (whilst they last 😂) thank you to our volunteers for providing them with a fun playday .

  • We like to start them young at #internationalprimaterescue 😂 just look at this little man getting stuck in like a true volunteer. His mummy Benthe has been visiting us for years all the way from the Netherlands and is clearly passing her love for the place onto him ❤️.
