Sandra, a 29-year-old orangutan, is pictured at Buenos Aires' zoo, on December 22, 2014. Sandra got cleared to leave a Buenos Aires zoo she has called home for 20 years, after a court ruled she was entitled to more desirable living conditions. Argentina's Association of Professional Lawyers for Animal Rights (AFADA) filed a “habeas corpus” writ – a form of legal redress against unlawful imprisonment – arguing she was “suffering an unwarranted confinement”. The AFADA is in the process of securing Sandra's release to transfer her to a sanctuary where she is expected to live a more comfortable and happy life, lawyers said.
