All Ages
Come salute our resident troop (family) of gorillas, the world’s largest primates.
Come see the growing troop of western lowland gorillas on the Gorilla Falls Exploration Trail at Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park.
Get to know the awesome apes that make their home in 7 countries across central and western Africa, typically in lowland tropical forests. Gorillas are charismatic, intelligent and highly social animals—with incredible strength!
Disney animal care experts have brought the magic of the rainforest to life—creating an enriching environment for the gorillas.
Here’s a glimpse inside the life of a gorilla at Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park:
Gorillas depend on African forests to survive, but those tropical habitats are starting to disappear. Deforestation, poaching and infectious diseases are the biggest threats to gorillas.
The Walt Disney Company is committed to saving wildlife and protecting the magic of nature together as a global community.
In the Democratic Republic of Congo, support from the Disney Conservation Fund* helped the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International open the Gorilla Rehabilitation and Conservation Education Center (GRACE). The center is devoted to rescuing and rehabilitating gorillas that have been orphaned by illegal poaching and animal trafficking.
Disney helped design and build the GRACE Center and continues to send Disney animal care experts, veterinarians and education specialists to work with the gorillas and offer training to GRACE’s community, animal care and education staff.
