Learning for and about chimpanzees

Teaching people about chimpanzees is one of the SSP's most important goals.  Educational programs help build public awareness of the various issues facing captive and wild chimpanzee populations today.  This website serves as one of our most powerful educational tools: please peruse the site and find out as much as you can about the Species Survival Plan and chimpanzees.

Chimp Haven Teacher's Guide
In 1999, the Chimpanzee SSP paired with Chimp Haven to create a teacher guide for teachers seeking to instruct their students about the behavior and biology of chimpanzees.  You can download this guide here very soon.
