The Vervet Monkey Foundation (VMF) is a 23-hectare not-for-profit[1] centre for rehabilitation, education and sanctuary for vervet monkeys, near the town of Tzaneen, South Africa.[2] Registered and established in 1993, it is situated approximately 80 miles south of the Tropic of Capricorn. The sanctuary is a member of the Pan African Sanctuary Alliance (PASA), and the Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries (GFAS).[3] The foundation relies heavily on volunteer workers primarily from western countries to assist in the day-to-day running and care duties of the foundation.
