“If you know where Tonka may have been shipped, sold, or hidden away, PETA wants to hear from you,” says PETA Foundation Deputy General Counsel for Captive Animal Law Enforcement Brittany Peet. Cumming is eager to find this chimpanzee and was astounded to learn that he was not well cared for. Haddix claimed, without any solid evidence, that he had “died.” In January 2022, a judge acknowledged that a mystery surrounds Tonka’s disappearance and found that Haddix was unable to prove that he’s dead-so PETA is now seeking leads into his current location. But when PETA arrived to move the chimpanzees from their cages to a sanctuary, Tonka was missing.

Tonka, who appeared with Alan Cumming in the movie Buddy, was one of the chimpanzees who were to be rescued from the Festus facility on July 28, 2021, as required by a court consent decree between PETA, MPF operator Connie Casey, and exotic-animal broker Tonia Haddix, to whom Casey had transferred ownership of the chimpanzees. – PETA is offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to the safe recovery or confirmation of death of Tonka, the missing chimpanzee whose last known whereabouts were inside the former Missouri Primate Foundation (MPF) facility, a breeding outfit that previously rented out baby chimpanzees for events and sold them to private homes and movie exhibitors and was known as “Chimparty.”
