WINAMAC, Ind. -- The Peaceable Primate Sanctuary is celebrating its 9th annual Baboon Fest this Sunday.
The sanctuary is designed for retired animals to thrive, with half of the animals being baboons and they have over 98 retired primates under their care.
Staff and volunteers work to make sure that each baboon receives the care they need in order to have a healthy and stimulating environment.
The Baboon Fest takes place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Admission is $10 for adults and free for children.
ABC57's Giselle Valentin was in Winamac to see how the day-to-day operations of the sanctuary work.
