Rwanda and Kigali: Reunited

Rwanda the gorilla received the best birthday gift of her 27 years when she and her 8-month-old infant Kigali were reunited on Sept. 14 at the Gulf Breeze Zoo.

Kigali and Rwanda had several days inside the ape house to get reacquainted with each other in private before making their way out to their island home.

“It’s been an emotional experience for every member of the staff,” said Kayte Wanko, director of the Zoo.
