Description
South of Liberia's capital Monrovia, 65 chimps are spread across six uninhabited river islands near the Atlantic Ocean. The chimps are the remainders of a group of about 400 ex-test subjects of a US-funded research project -- and have survived decades of invasive experiments. Some of the animals underwent several hundred biopsies. Years on, the former lab chimps now enjoy veterinary care and two daily meals. But many still bear the scars of their grim past.
