A group of chimpanzees is seen at Lwiro Primates centre in Lwiro, South Kivu, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, 06 March 2020. The Democratic Republic of Congo is home to some of the world’s most biodiverse locations, however, conflict, poachers and lawlessness are a constant threat to the unique species inhabiting the forests. Conservation authorities have created a safe haven for threatened chimpanzees and several other species of monkey. Orphaned by poaching, saved from the pet or bushmeat trade, rescued primates are often traumatised and medically vulnerable. (Photo by Hugh Kinsella Cunningham/EPA/EFE)
