Gorilla Behind the scenes
Meet one of Melbourne Zoo’s critically endangered Western Lowland Gorillas and the passionate keeper who cares for them.
Due to current restrictions, this encounter is not currently running and we are unable to take bookings or create a waitlist.
Please keep an eye on the website in 2022 for when this encounter will be available again.
In this exclusive experience, you’ll learn about the complex social order of our primate cousins before going behind the scenes to leave them a snack or two.
Finally, you’ll head to the VIP viewing platform to watch these critically endangered animals enjoy your treats – and maybe even a ‘pleasure grumble’ as they eat!
Your participation will help contribute to Zoos Victoria's work to fight wildlife extinction.
Zoo entry not included. Be sure to also book your entry tickets for the same date as your encounter.
