Can gorillas have friends? Yes.

Endangered animals have a friend in Zoo Atlanta.

Zoo Atlanta recently celebrated 30 years of partnership with Ford Motor Company at the 2015 Beastly Feast. Ford’s support led to the opening of The Ford African Rain Forest and has contributed to the Zoo’s reputation as an international leader in the care and study of great apes.

The Zoo is now the home of North America’s largest collection of gorillas. Western lowland gorillas are now critically endangered as a result of habitat loss, poaching and the bushmeat trade.
