Wani can also be translated as Willemijn ANImal Care. Willemijn Eggen (veterinary assistant) is the dedicated person behind the foundation. Since she was 10 years old she dreamed about working with orang-utans in Indonesia. To help diseased animals means the world to her. She loves working with primates and above all, she is very passionate about orang-utans. The purpose of Wanicare is to prevent wild animal trade and to release animals back into their natural habitat.
