5.0 out of 5 stars SOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!, August 28, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Escape to Chimp Eden Season 1 (Amazon Instant Video)
This guy is a freaking hero! He travels all around the globe saving abused chimps and works with them to get them ready to go back to the wild. He is talented and driven. Not to mention he totally speaks the chimps language and knows how dangerious they can be. He is not trying to make these animals pets he is trying to make them animals again. Someone should give him a humanitarian award. Oh and his show is fabulious....did I mention hes cute too? I get up every morning at 6:30am just to watch his show. PS I dont have to get up till 9am.
