20 years of Barbary Macaque Conservation

22nd Jan 2025

In 2025, Nathan Wyburn created a collage from over 500 images to celebrate our 20th anniversary. Pictures from staff and visitors across the last 20 years make up the image of the first baby born at Trentham, nicknamed ‘Dee’! Since 2005, over 100 babies have been born and 5 generations have thrived, all living lives similar to the wild. The collage represents our commitment to protecting and raising awareness of this endangered species.
