Chris Austria
My life is an incredible adventure that has taken me down some very exciting and extraordinary paths. I have been fortunate to be able to follow my passions in life. This has been a challenge, and at times a difficult road, but worth it in unimaginable ways. A life with tigers and lions has been a dream of mine since I was a child. My work with the big cats eventually led me to wildlife conservation in East Africa. Currently, I am working for the Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary in Uganda. In 1998, the sanctuary was founded by Dr. Jane Goodall and a group of founding trustees. This website is an account of my journey.

Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary was founded in 1998 in Uganda by Dr. Jane Goodall and a group of founding trustees. They have 95 acres of natural forest habitat for 48 orphaned chimpanzees that have been rescued from the illegal wildlife trade. On July 30th at the Fenix Supper Club in San Rafael CA, I will be hosting a concert benefiting #NgambaIslandChimpanzeeSanctuary. This event will also be streaming live on the Fenix’s website. 50% of all ticket sales will go to Ngamba Island in #Uganda #EastAfrica. 100% of all raffle proceeds and direct donations will go to our cause. Thank you to the Fenix and all the performers for their generous contributions. Please visit http://chimpchampcause.wix.com/ngambaislandconcert for more information.

We are filming a documentary in Uganda on the strong connection between community development, rural health care, and wildlife conservation.
I hope the evening is a real success Chris!
