Zenith Celebrates A Different Kind Of STOL Champion

Baby Chimp Saved From Poachers In A 'Sky Jeep' Aircraft

Zenith Aircraft called our attention to a video of a baby chimp being rescued from poachers in Africa.

The touching short video of the rescue flight went viral on social media and international news since its release a few days ago, showing the pilot flying the baby chimp to his new home, even letting him play with the airplane's controls.

"This looks cute but is actually a sad story. He should be with his mom," said  Zenith STOL pilot Anthony Caere. The rescued chimp was flown to the safety of a national park in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in the Zenith "Sky Jeep."

Caere is an anti-poaching pilot at Virunga National Park in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Africa, and also a self-described explorer and conservationist.
