The Western Area Peninsula National Park is a biodiversity hotspot. It is home to mammals like Jenkins duikers and chimpanzees. It was also the first landing place of freed slaves.

In November 2018, I spent two days at Tacugama Chimpanzee Sanctuary on the outskirts of Freetown, which works to rescue and rehabilitate chimpanzees orphaned by the illegal pet trade or the slaughter of their mothers for bushmeat. I made my arrangement with Bimbola Carrol at VSL Travel.
