Disney Conservation Efforts with Gorillas

Update on Gorilla Rescue Center in Eastern Congo

One of orphaned gorillas has made itself a home at the GRACE center. The first wave of gorillas have instantly relaxed in their new forest home- eating vegetation and climbing trees.

Currently under construction, GRACE, which was initiated by the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International with advice on design and systems provided by experts from Disney’s Animal Programs and Pan African Sanctuary Alliance (PASA), will initially house 10 orphaned gorillas currently living in temporary facilities under the care of the Congolese Park Authority (ICCN), the Rwanda Development Board (RDB), and the Mountain Gorilla Veterinary Project (MGVP), as well as the Fossey Fund.
