Gorillas play a key role in maintaining healthy ecosystems, including by dispersing the seeds of the fruit they eat.
Thursday’s #WorldGorillaDay is a reminder of the threats they face and the need to protect these endangered animals and their habitats.

Happy World Gorilla Day! 🦍🌿
Today, we celebrate gorillas and the forests they call home. All gorilla subspecies are endangered or critically endangered where they are found within 10 countries in Africa. Protecting gorillas means protecting their forests, supporting the communities living alongside them, and securing a future where both people and gorillas can thrive.
Let’s continue working together to protect these incredible animals and their homes.
Happy #WorldGorillaDay! 💚
