Primarily Primates

In October 1999, Primarily Primates (PP) was officially established as an 11-strong section providing a tour and discovery station as added attraction in the Primate Kingdom. PP’s evolution began in June, with two pioneering docents providing a tour every second Saturday of the month. Today, besides manning a discovery station every Sunday afternoon at the Garden Pavilion, PP Volunteer Rangers patrol the Primate Kingdom and Eithopian Experience immersion exhibit to conduct tours for interested visitors.
