KUWAIT – AGAIN. This guy in Kuwait has videos of a baby chimpanzee and orangutan playing with a gibbon. An infant chimpanzee was seized from a Kuwaiti on his way to Kuwait in the Cairo airport but the Egyptian CITES authorities will do nothing about repatriating it. This is shocking isn’t it? The KUWAIT CITES MANAGEMENT AUTHORITY should be ashamed; do you agree? EGYPT CITES MA are no better.
