Fun facts about chimpanzees:
*They share 98% of our DNA
*They are 5 times stronger than a man
*They are highly social and live in communities
*There are an estimated 4-7,000 living in Sierra Leone
*They are super cute!!

We spent last night in the jungle at a chimp reserve that works to rehabilitate abandoned, injured and sick chimps. Today we hiked to a lake and then waterfall (with the help of our two small but knowledgeable guides). It is certainly a beautiful country. I will miss this place.
