Gibbons in Zoos

[Luke da Zoo nerd]

Interesting. I don't recall either seeing the exhibit, or seeing the animal. If they indeed have kloss's gibbons, I know where my next big trip will be!

I remember that Twycross Zoo (UK) used to boast that they held six of the nine known gibbon species... How times have changed!

I've seen a northern white-cheeked gibbon at the Denver Zoo, and a lar gibbon at the Reid Park Zoo.

Oh, I just remembered that I've also seen a siamang at the Phoenix Zoo.
