Overview

Celebrate World Primate Day on September 1st by planting trees that protect the forests our primate relatives call home.

Many primates are endangered. Illegal animal trade, deforestation, disease and sadly bush meat trade.

This is a seed, not a tree yet. It only becomes one if enough people water it, one drop each, and one person is not enough for that.

I work with horses and dogs in Germany and know nothing about primates, so I am leaving a seed instead of an opinion. For a day that belongs to animals I will never meet, that feels about right.

If you have a drop to spare today, please give it to this one.

I work with horses and dogs in Germany. I have never seen a rainforest, and anything I could write about primates would be borrowed from someone who actually knows.

What I do know is roofs. The roof of a stable, a ceiling over a living room, a dry corner when it rains. Nobody has to explain that to an animal.

Two trees, already planted, from someone who will never stand under them.
