URGENT PLEA TO OUR FRIENDS AND SUPPORTERS:

The Gibbon Conservation Center needs to begin collecting funds now to purchase property in order to relocate. Encroaching local development will soon become a very real threat to the health and well-being of our gibbons. Stress from the sight and noise of construction, and microorganisms in the dust stirred up in earth moving, pose unacceptable and lethal dangers. . . . more

For Your Safety
Enjoy viewing the gibbons, but

PLEASE DO NOT LEAN OVER THE GUARDRAILS TO INTERACT WITH THE GIBBONS
!
Please be careful with your children—supervision is required.  Volunteers will be nearby to remind you to stay behind the guardrails and to answer questions.  Remember, the gibbons are wild animals!

Alan & staff
