Over at Woodland Park Zoo, mama gorilla Uzumma is busy tending to her sweet baby boy, born March 4. Look how cute he is! Follow along with all his adorableness at the zoo's Growing Up Gorilla page. You can create and submit a wish for the baby gorilla, learn how to support Uzumma, her baby and the other gorillas at Woodland Park Zoo, and learn about conservation efforts for Africa's western lowland gorillas. Tip for kids: Read through the gorilla info and see if you can you find out how your mom or dad's old cell phone or tablet could help gorillas.
Once the zoo reopens, find the gorillas in the Tropical Rain Forest exhibit.
