Miracles Can Happen
At a home for rescued baby chimps in Liberia, orphans from the illegal pet trade receive round-the-clock care. Couple Jim and Jenny Desmond never planned to become surrogate parents to 21 chimpanzees, but now their home is bursting at the seams. Their dream is to build them all a new sanctuary in the forest. With help from friend and chimp specialist Ben Garrod, they teach the orphans the skills they would have learnt from their mothers in the wild. Just when they can't cope with any more chimps, they go out and rescue a new orphan called Miracle from her life on a chain.

At Liberia's only home for rescued chimpanzees, there are more new arrivals. Jimmy and Jenny Desmond and their team now have 28 chimps to look after, including an eight-week-old baby called Gaia.

But a deadly cold breaks out among the babies, with disastrous consequences. And the team rescues an adult male chimp called Jonny who brings a new set of challenges.
