Reviews
"A lot smaller than I remembered. Still cool as hell."
"New Gorilla baby born... so cute!!!!"
"Fantastic place to watch gorillas and orangutans at the National Zoo. There is a young orangutan who is adorable."
"I agree with the other 1 star review pointing out the inadequacy of this facility. Given the precedent set by other zoological parks (thinking San Diego and North Carolina), this facility is inadequate. The pins are too small, with too little artifacts for mental stimulation and social exploration. The accompanying outside facility is also too small. Have these animals every run more than 15ft? And the worst part is that their demeanor seems to reflect this state of existence. In the end, this place left me a little heavy hearted."
