Chimp Tikko undergoes surgery when he gets a tooth infection, newcomer Floh meets leader Sam, and golden- cheeked gibbon Tien is on the look-out for a mate.

Alison agrees to take in a neglected marmoset. Baby Leo is brought to the park by the RSPCA and is in a dreadful state, leaving staff unsure as to whether he will survive.

Golden-cheeked gibbon Tien finally meets his new mate, Kim, but the course of true love does not run smoothly. Meanwhile, naughty chimp Rodders pushes Lulu to the limit.

Excitement is in store at Hananya's enclosure when chimp Cherri gives birth to twins. Elsewhere, woolly monkey Pacaja takes a shine to leader Oaska.

The rescuers face a heart-breaking dilemma when chimp Susie is taken to the hospital and found to have an inoperable heart condition.

Alison heads to the Maldives to rescue a slow loris that was confiscated during a drug raid. Back at the park, Jeremy is outwitted by capuchin.
