In
the year 2000, Belgian television company, Gedeon followed the
organisation "HELP Congo", which has been combating the
illegal chimpanzee trade in Congo for more than 10 years, in their first
successful attempt to reintroduce to the forest, chimpanzees raised in
captivity.
In
a previous documentary, Born To Be Free, attention was focused on a
group of chimpanzees that were brought up and released by the
association.
Today,
Free is looking at the way this population of chimps have adapted to
their new life in the wild, how they cope with the other chimps in the
forest and what relationship and social structure they have built.
The
HELP Congo scientists have given each chimp a name to identify them and
have attached transmitter collars to them to track and study their
behaviour.
