=== // **Western Lowland Gorillas **    // ===

Welcome to the Wiki project collaboration of educators from literally all over the world (see group members page). Our group members come from diverse backgrounds and experiences but have been taught at the Milwaukee Digital Media Conference to create a Wiki about Western Lowland Gorillas. We hope you enjoy your visit of our collaboration and learn a few things about interactive web sites, gorillas, and the Milwaukee County Zoo.

You can navigate our Wiki using the task bar on the left. We have highlighted the Milwaukee County Zoo’s gorilla exhibit and have included information about habitat and diet. If you are interested in studying gorillas with your children, we have also included an activities page which has some coloring pages and a crossword puzzle for their learning fun.
