<!-- INSTRUCTIONS FOR UPLOADING SITE INFORMATION
- Wiki pages contain information in paragraphs, tables, lists, and images.
- Text and images are not restricted, and their formats can be chosen as desired.
- Tables and lists are extracted as data, so the following restrictions apply to them:
1) Table structure cannot be changed.
2) List format should not change, i.e. they are comma separated lists, not bullet points or numbered lists.
3) To make information comparable across wiki pages, keywords must be taken from the list of permitted words, or added to the list of permitted keywords. This is why we use official lists, e.g., IUCN classification lists, in our tables.

= Site characteristics = <!-- A paragraph summary of physical and geographic aspects of the site, and a table of key information -->
The Endangered Primate Rescue Center (EPRC) project started in 1991 with an initiative of the Frankfurt Zoological Society (FZS); the goal was to reduce poaching, logging and illegal wildlife trade in and around Cuc Phuong National Park. Growing numbers of primates from the surrounding areas that required immediate housing and care led to the creation of the rescue center ([https://www.eprc.asia/ EPRC]).
