History about Mouza and Kuku:
Mouza was delivered to Giza Zoo, the recognized rescue center April 2010 because there was no hope in treating her. She was locked in solitary confinement for a time. August 2010 she had surgery and part of tumor was removed. Nov. 2011 she was moved to chimps enclosure with room mate Kuku. Hilda Tresz, mentor of Jane Goodall Institute made the introduction. June 2013, another medical check was made, cancer is spreading, she would soon leave.
Kuku: was born in Giza Zoo. May 19, 2010, the Giza Zoo had to vacant the chimps enclosure to make room for the orangutans which were given as present from Al Ain Zoo. After campaigning, Kuku was returned from Fayoum Zoo to Giza Zoo and grouped with Mouza Nov. 2011. A new enclosure was built for the orangutans.
