An abandoned female chimpanzee from Iran that has lived with humans all her life was transferred to a sanctuary in Kenya 'to learn how to be an ape.'

The four-year-old chimp Baran was taken to the Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary in Laikipia country after caretakers feared that her isolation from other apes could have bad effects on her health.
