New Enclosure at London Zoo: Gorilla Kingdom

with 4 comments

On Friday, March 30th, the London Zoo will present a new enclosure to the public, Gorilla Kingdom (check out the website – there’s a fun little gorilla video clip in the header).

Effie, from Leipzig Zoo, joins Bobby and Zaire in an effort to recreate a natural gorilla harem.

The £5.3m project includes indoor and outdoor play areas where the gorillas will live with colubus monkeys.
