I can't make out the Diet info clear enough even when enlarged and i'd be interested to read it..any chance you can take a close up photo the next time you go please? :)
 
Yes, that'll be in a minimum of 4 weeks though. I will look at the file on my computer and list some of it. This was more for personal reference, I didn't need to read everything. I'll be glad to list all once I get home :)

Awesome..Thanks.
 
If you are after just the diet information, here you go:
GORILLA DIET
Each gorilla receives approximately 15 pounds of food a day! Their daily diets include:
Apples, Bananas, Oranges, Grapes, Yams, Carrots, Onions, Romaine, Kale, Celery, Red Leaf Lettuce, Cabbage, and Primate Chow. [There is some really small text that I can't read below primate chow, probably explaining what it is. I also cannot read the yellow notecard.] These other items are added throughout the week according to a schedule: broccoli, bell peppers, green beans, tomato, corn on cob, cucumber.

That's all there was on that sheet, except for what I mentioned I couldn't read. If you want the information about each individual gorilla, I can read it all just fine.
 
Out of interest: why do they have 2 gorilla groups now?

Any breeding success lately (I know in the past ... it has been somewhat a let-down ...).
 
The south habitat it the bachelor group. Not sure why they have one, but there are four males approximately the same age in there. The north habitat has one male and three females, which they are trying to breed. No success yet, sadly. Both habitats are lush and designed well.
