Xico was rescued in October 2020, when the Ministry of the Environment received a call from the manager of a lodge at the Kwanza River. The manager reported that while she was driving through a nearby village, she saw some local children hitting an animal with sticks. She stopped her vehicle and opened the door, and a young chimpanzee climbed into her car. Xico was brought to the Maiombe National Park holding center.
