Cosmas found the missing baboon ‘John’ yesterday after a week of searching for him. He said when they found him he ran out of a tree and into Cosmos’s arms holding him tight.

We toasted the return of John safely to his troop at dinner last night. Cosmas said the whole group were barking and screaming with excitement and joy when John returned. Cosmas and I leave for the Copperbelt region tomorrow morning on attempted primate rescue!!!
