JaxElephant you are probally right about the Gibbons. A primate keeper said the zoo is looking to start new family of Bonobos, and bring more female Gorillas, thus they want to exband the primate exhibit.
Like everything else,itis wait and see!
Moving Gibbons would make sense,they would be in Asia and primate area could be exbanded.
I wonder why they would want to start a new bonobo family and bring in more female gorillas? We already have a beautiful baby bonobo and Quito surely doesn't look interest in the females we have now.
