Chimps get Thanksgiving feast at Blue Ridge Santuary
BLUE RIDGE, Ga. - Happy Chimpsgiving! That’s what was celebrated Thanksgiving Day at the Project Chimps sanctuary near Blue Ridge, Georgia.
The sanctuary has 79 former research chimpanzees who all received a plant-based roast thanks to Tofurky. For 20 of the chimps, this is their first holiday at the sanctuary.

Project Chimps is a forever home for the primates. They hope to have an additional 130 more chimps as soon as they can build on to the current habitats.
