Adopt-a-Chimp is a fund-raising project for the Fauna Foundation, a privately run, government certified and non-profit organization committed to animals. Find out more

Welcome to Fauna, a non-profit organization that works to provide rescue and a permanent home for animals that have been used, neglected, abused or rejected by humans. Established in 1997, we provide a better life for many different species. Fauna has rescued animals from farming, entertainment, education and research. A primary focus of ours is providing for chimpanzees rescued from research. We are the first sanctuary to accept HIV infected chimpanzees from a laboratory.

Fauna also works to create a protected environment for Quebec's native flora and fauna. Situated on more than 200 acres, Fauna offers a lake, a river, fields, protected wetlands and a young forest with many varieties of native flora and animal species.  Fauna is committed to preserving its land and has created wildlife corridors, gardens and new plantings of native flora. Our commitment to the land encourages local species to populate the area and migratory birds to stop for the available food and shelter our land provides.  Fauna’s wooded land  was dedicated in February 2004 as a natural reserve for wildlife conservation — the Ruisseau Robert Natural Reserve

Thank you for helping us help them and make our world a better place.

Fauna wishes to thank the Reverie Foundation for its funding for this website.
