Monkey Antics at the Born Free USA Primate Sanctuary
Located in Dilley, Texas, the Born Free USA Primate Sanctuary is home to more than 500 primates, many of whom were rescued from abusive situations in laboratories, roadside zoos, and private possession. The Sanctuary offers life in as natural an environment as possible with minimal human interference, allowing monkeys to live as free as they can be.

Christian the Lion - the real story
A personal message from Will Travers, CEO Born Free USA and Born Free Foundation.
This lion (Christian) used to live in my garden.
He was bought from Harrods pet store in London and came, via a furniture shop and my garden, to live in Africa (Kora in Kenya), where he was returned to the wild by the world-famous George Adamson.
My late Dad (Bill) filmed this great adventure.
The film is extraordinary and exemplifies the spirit that underpins Born Free. Every individual matters. Even way back in the 1970's, this was our way of giving Christian a shot at freedom.
This is part of the Born Free legacy. If it wasn't for Born Free, the film, my Dad and Mum (Virginia McKenna) would never have met. Ace and John (the two young men in the clip) would never have brought Christian from London to my garden. My dad, Bill, would never have negotiated with the Kenyan government for Christian's return to Africa. We would never have had this memorable and inspiring story - and Christian would never have had his freedom.
Today, Born Free USA and the Born Free Foundation carry on the spirit of Born Free - helping wild animals in need, fighting injustice, cruelty and neglect and working to change animals' lives for good.
