Gorillas Zoo Guadalajara

03/01/2022

Welcome in 2022 with some amazing gorilla birthdays!

We’re headed south of the border to the Guadalajara Zoo today for our seventh birthday celebration! This lovely lady is Chencha, and today is her 36th birthday! Being only one of a handful of gorillas in Mexico, Chencha and daughter Faustina call Guadalajara their home. We hope you kicked off the new year in fashion!

As we kick off the New Year, we will be celebrating our most distinguished group of gorillas. While they are all important, these individuals are the original members of generation that shaped the gorillas we know today.

We travel south of the border to ZOOLOGICO GUADALAJARA to celebrate with Chencha. While there aren't many gorillas in Mexico, Chencha has captured the hearts of Guadalajara! Have a fantastic year!
