Chimps reunite with the woman, Linda Koebner, who rescued them from the cages of a research lab 25 years earlier. For six years, they were locked in a hepatitis research lab. It was very tough for them to adapt to the new world or live on their own after they were released.
Koebner, founder of Chimp Haven, a non-profit chimpanzee sanctuary in Louisiana and a graduate at the time, spent four years with them, teaching them how to be wild and fend for themselves. She hadn’t visited them for two decades.
This is the touching moment when Koebner meets her best friends for the first time after 25 years.
