About  [Edit]

Mission:



To bring interspecies communication to the public, in order to save gorillas from extinction, and inspire our children to create a sustainable future for all the great apes.



Established in 1976, The Gorilla Foundation/Koko.org promotes the protection, preservation and propagation of gorillas. Project Koko, a primary focus of TGF/Koko.org, involves teaching a modified form of American Sign Language to two lowland gorillas, Koko and Michael. In addition, TGF/Koko.org is developing a unique preserve for gorillas on the island of Maui, Hawaii.
