Book
The chimps of Fauna Sanctuary : a Canadian story of resilience and recovery / Andrew Westoll.
In 1997, Gloria Grow started a sanctuary for chimps retired from biomedical research on her farm outside Montreal. Journalist Westoll spent months at Fauna Sanctuary as a volunteer, and in this book he vividly recounts his time in the chimp house and the histories of its residents. Brimming with empathy and winning stories of Gloria and her charges, "The Chimps of Fauna Sanctuary" is an absorbing, big-hearted book.
