Watch the gorillas at Bristol Zoo

We will be streaming pictures live, 24 hours a day, from two cameras on Gorilla Island. Learn more about their structured family life as these magnificent creatures eat, sleep and play. Hunted in the wild for 'bushmeat', their orphaned babies sold as pets, it is feared the gorillas could be wiped out in decades. Bristol Zoo is working with Ape Action Africa to stop the killing.
