Help us wish a very happy 22nd birthday to western lowland gorilla, ‘Kioja’! Kioja is known as the calming presence within the troop but she’s also a bit of a social butterfly.
To help celebrate her special day, our Animal Care Technicians planned a very special treat for the troop – cupcakes!

Leave your birthday wishes in the comments or stop by the Rainforest Building today and wish Kioja a happy birthday in person!
