Published for the first time on August21st2012, Gorillas Land is a fan website created to share news, as its most, about gorillas kept under human care. Over the years, our platform was improved and developed by sharing content of all kind regarding this species and their surroundings, till Gorillas Land has become a worldwide level reference as a source. Nowadays, apart from sharing the kind of content we started with, we promote conservation and education about this critically endangered species through our website and social networks, trying to emphasize the importance to make our biggest efforts to protect wildlife.
