The Florida sanctuary where beloved chimpanzee Tonka lives has been rocked by floods … but the “Chimp Crazy” star is safe and sound.
Dan Mathews, Director of Events and Special Projects for Save the Chimps, tells TMZ … Save the Chimps got 19 inches of rain in 12 hours.
Mathews tells us … all the chimps were brought inside except one named Kaleb. He says they weren’t able to get to him during the flooding and have been giving him items via drone.
We’re told Tonka rode out the storm alongside 15 other chimps in the care house, and had a blast hanging out with fellow chimp, Kippy.
While the chimps are all doing just fine in the wake of the wild weather, Mathews tells TMZ the sanctuary’s got a lot of damage.
