This film was produced by Hidden Picture Productions for West African Primate Conservation Action (WAPCA). It details the work of WAPCA in preserving endangered species of monkey in the forests of Western Ghana and Eastern Cote d'Ivoire, in particular the white-naped mangabey and the rolloway monkey. Due to deforestation and illegal hunting, these species are threatened with extinction. Funded by a group of European zoos, WAPCA works with government agencies and with communities near forest reserves to try and conserve these fragile populations.
