He arrived at Anami in 2005 weighing only 7.8 kg. He was very thin, malnourished, and frightened. While living in the circus, Dino spent much of the day in a dark and very small cage, which prevented his normal development. His muscles were atrophied, and he showed signs of rickets.
Before integrating him into the group of chimpanzees at the Sanctuary, Dino underwent physiotherapy sessions to strengthen his muscles and received a balanced diet. He responded very well to the treatment and was integrated with Lucas. Soon, a strong friendship was formed. Today, Dino is very energetic and is undoubtedly the most active chimpanzee in the Sanctuary. He interacts with everyone in the group, keeping monotony far away.
