MONKEY LIFE

Series 5 in production, now in High Definition

Please see the National Geographic Channel website for details.

A Primate Planet Productions film

Documenting the work of Monkey World – Ape Rescue Centre

After ten years of successful production of Monkey Business, first filmed by Tigress and then Meridian ITV, Monkey Life was created in 2006, and they are both shown on Animal Planet and other channels worldwide.

MONKEY LIFE

Set in Monkey World Ape Rescue Centre in Dorset, UK, the series follows the nail-biting rescue and rehabilitation stories of some of the most abused and neglected monkeys in the world, and the unwavering hard work of Alison Cronin in her ongoing mission to stop the illegal smuggling of primates from the wild. Refugees and chimps that were found abused in laboratories, circus tents or as photographers props are rehabilitated here and given the chance to spend the rest of their days being cared for in a natural environment.

Filmed over the course of a year, this heart-warming series follows the day-to-day dramas and personalities of these, our closest relatives. From power struggles and dramas, to friendship bonds and new additions to the group, Monkey Life follows some of the most beautiful creatures on the planet, and the team who are devoted to working with them.
