The monkeys had to be taken in for rehabilitation after spending most of their young lives in captivity. While they had been through a lot, it is possible that the brothers always had each other.
It is unclear why the chimps needed to be separated when they were rescued. There is a possibility that the two were taken from their mother by poachers. However, it is clear that the NGOs which took them in did a great job in helping them heal.
