Willie B. III Baby Shower Wish List
Help welcome the 25th gorilla born in our Ford African Rain Forest since 1988 and the newest member of an amazing Atlanta legacy – Willie B., III! Whether you’re a gorilla fan interested in contributing directly to the care of these incredible apes, an Atlantan who remembers the baby’s legendary late grandfather, Willie B., or just have a heart that melts at the thought of a new Zoo baby, you’re invited to help us celebrate by purchasing items from the registry below.
The registry items below will be shipped directly to the Zoo. Thank you for showering Willie B., III with love!

Metal Feeder Baskets - $220 (always in need)
These baskets allow us to increase the overall food processing time it takes our gorillas to consume their diet. Wild gorillas spend around 50% of their day accessing their food. These baskets help us work to highlight those same natural behaviors here at Zoo Atlanta.

 |
Hammocks - $80 (always in need)
Hammocks allow us to provide spaces, both in their outdoor habitats and in their indoor behind-the-scenes night areas, where gorillas can nest. Gorillas spend roughly 30% of their day resting, making it important to be able to provide such spaces.

Nibble Nets - $60 (always in need)
These nets are a more challenging way for us to present food items to the gorillas. Paired with other puzzle feeders, they extend the overall feeding time of our gorillas throughout the day.

General Gorilla Enrichment - $25 (always in need)
This category will purchase a small enrichment item requested by the Gorilla Care Team, such as alfalfa bags, boomer balls, quick links, Kong toys, or dip feeders.
