This free resource aims to help schools to participate in Drawing for the Planet’s Chimpanzee Community 2 project, delivered in partnership with Liberia Chimpanzee Rescue and Protection (LCRP) and Born Free (BFF), raising awareness of endangered chimpanzees.

Deforestation and the illegal wildlife trade are decimating Western chimpanzee populations with as few as 18,000-65,000 wild individuals remaining. Their decline affects us all.

This Amazing Chimpanzees resource is a 75-100+ minute lesson plan covering information about chimpanzees, rainforests and the threats they face, as well as a video introduction to LCRPs work. The lesson then ends with an art activity created by Jane Lee McCracken, artist and Founder of Drawing for the Planet.

These resources are designed for upper Key Stage 2 but they can easily be adapted if needed. This topic has many cross-curricular links, with strong links to Science, Geography, Citizenship and Art and Design.

Important Note: Chimpanzees are not pets and should not be forced to live with humans. Liberia Chimpanzee Rescue & Protection’s mission is to keep chimpanzees in the wild where they belong! The chimpanzees at Liberia Chimpanzee Rescue & Protection’s sanctuary in West Africa are victims of the illegal bushmeat and pet trades and their mothers were tragically killed - they therefore require human surrogate mothers to meet their intense needs.
