It was with great delight that Tats, the boys and I learned of the imminent freedom of Sandra, a German "friend" whom we had met last year at the Buenos Aires Zoo in Argentina.
It turns out the 29-year-old Orangutan we had often visited and sometimes fed bananas to last year is the winner in a court decision that has found her to have rights as a "non-human person".
This will likely result in her being freed and released to a sanctuary.
Already the first time we met Sandra, we were concerned about her lonely, boring situation at the BsAs zoo, and both the boys and I blogged about her; we wondered what her fate would be, and are really pleased to hear she will soon find a more suitable home.
