Western Lowland Gorilla

Western lowland gorillas, critically endangered due to habitat loss and hunting, are vital to their rainforest ecosystems. 

The Toronto Zoo participates in and contributes to the management and support of Western lowland gorillas through research, husbandry, management, and education. Working with other accredited facilities, the Toronto Zoo helps maintain the genetic health and population numbers of Western lowland gorillas in captivity and in the wild.

By adopting a Toronto Zoo animal, your support will help to safeguard the future of species, like the Western lowland gorilla, for future generations. Help us to preserve and protect our planet, and the incredible wildlife that call it home.
