                                       Trust, and we wanted to mark the year with a large-scale,

Why Gorillas?
Gorillas are majestic, powerful yet gentle animals, and one
of our closest living relatives. But they are in peril. All four
subspecies of gorilla are under threat due to habitat loss,
hunting, wildlife trade, and the spread of infectious disease.

Jersey Zoo has been home to western lowland gorillas for
nearly 60 years. We have cared for three silverbacks and their
families, and successfully bred over 20 individuals. As part of our
commitment to the conservation of the species we bring gorilla
rangers from Africa to Jersey each year to train with staff here.

The current zoo habitat boasts an extensive outside area where
gorillas roam amongst natural vegetation. The indoor area,
however, requires redevelopment. We have a bold and exciting
plan for a major extension to the existing building, which will
create:

•   Two new, large exhibition dens, quadrupling the size of

    the existing areas. The interiors will feature a ‘biofloor’ with
    natural features within.
•   An advanced, translucent roof that allows full natural
    daylight to flood in.                                              DATE OF BIR TH 27 September 1999                          DATE OF BIR TH 23 April 1994

    close quarters.

60th Anniversary
Celebrations
In 2019, Go Wild Gorillas brings together Durrell’s positive and bold strategy for
conservation with the celebration of our 60th Anniversary. We aim to deliver
a world-class sculpture trail and creative learning programme which can be
enjoyed by islanders and visitors to Jersey, as well as our neighbouring Channel
Islands. This is a celebration of the remarkable work achieved at Jersey Zoo and
in the wild to protect species from extinction. This vital mission has only been
possible due to the dedication and passion of Durrell supporters.

As well as an exhibition of public art spanning three months at the height of
summer, there will be opportunities for schools, community groups, and businesses
to join in, be creative, and attend a range of special events. The finale will be a
spectacular auction of the sculptures with all funds raised contributing to a new
state-of-the-art home for the gorillas at Jersey Zoo.
