Trends suggest that all great ape species could become extinct in the wild in the 21st century, and some even within a few decades. To raise awareness of this crisis and to raise vital funds to help fight it, Bristol Zoo is participating in the world-wide Year of the Gorilla Campaign.
We are looking for people to sign up and run the Bristol Half Marathon in aid of Year of the Gorilla – email ljones [at] bristolzoo [dot] org [dot] uk or call 0117 974 7329 to find out more!
