Happy World Gorilla Day! 🖤🦍


World Gorilla Day is on the 24th of September every year. World Gorilla Day was founded in 2017, it is a great day to celebrate these wonderful animals.

Gorillas are such beautiful animals.


They are so unique.


Gorillas are amazing animals with some surprising personality traits - they are gentle giants and they are so playful animals. Gorillas are joyful animals to watch in documentaries; they have been famously featured in David Attenborough's documentaries.

World Gorilla Day is also a great day to raise awareness about these cute animals.


There are two species of gorillas - eastern gorillas (which are critically endangered), and western gorillas (which are also critically endangered), there is also estimated to be four or five subspecies of gorillas.


In being critically endangered, gorillas are one of the world's rarest animals and are in need of protection. Protecting gorillas and their forests is important for their survival and future, hopefully we can save gorillas.


Happy World Gorilla Day! 🖤🦍
