The season finale of Animal Planets hit show, Escape to Chimp Eden will air on Friday, May 9th at 9PM ET/PT. The season consisted of 11 episodes and followed Eugene Cousins as he rescued and rehabilitated 13 chimps that had been abused and neglected throughout Africa.
In this 12th and final episode, Eugene will try to figure out how he is going to integrate this many chimps in the sanctuary and at what costs, including financial. This will be a must watch episode as Jao’s rehabilitation is threatened due to his lack of assimilation with the other chimps in the sanctuary. If you recall, Jao is the oldest chimp in the sanctuary and has has many hardships.
Catch the final episode tomorrow night at 9PM ET/PT on Animal Planet.

I fell in love with Chimp Eden. I can’t wait to see the last show. Will there be a part two Chimp Eden? Eugene best wishes to you and family.

Great show; Eugene is doing good work, but I fear that within another year or two, he will have developed an ulcer. Sigh….

Hi Everyone, thanks for all the great comments and be sure that we will continue to do whatever we can to save the chimps.
Season 2 starts early 2009 and will bring the fans even closer to their favorite chimps.
