We are proud to announce the birth of a Western lowland gorilla. Read the press release here, or click the image to see photos. Please be aware that the rainforest building may not always be open to allow Zuri time to bond with her baby.

 

Malti is spending more and more time with the rest of the female herd. The best times for viewing are between 11:30 AM and 3:00 PM, but still dependent on feeding and other unforeseen circumstances.
