To facilitate access, the pack 26 “Ebo Birthday”: only on Saturday, October 26, €26 entry for 2 adults and up to 2 children.

Tuesday, October 22, 2013. Ebo is the first gorilla born in Valencia and next Saturday meets your first year. BIOPARC Valencia wants to celebrate it in an original way, with a “gorillada”.

What is a “gorilla”? Symbolically it will be putting yourself in the shoes of a gorilla, be part of a photograph in which all participants must wear a mask with the image of a gorilla. To do this, Bioparc has created “masks” with photographs of the Bioparc gorilla family. These masks can now be downloaded from the web and each person simply has to choose the one they like the most and print it. On Saturday, go to Bioparc with the mask and participate in the “gorilla”.

Why do we do it?

Because we want to draw attention to the plight of gorillas. These animals, with which we share about 98% of DNA, are in serious danger of extinction and it is in our hands to change this reality.

We want people who share with Bioparc the love and respect for animals to wear a gorilla mask as a visible gesture on a special day. To make it accessible to everyone, the pack 26 “Cumple Ebo”, with a very special promotion that allows 2 adults and up to 2 children (4 and 12 years old) to enter Bioparc for €26 in total. Each child must pay 1 euro which will go to the BIOPARC Foundation.

This offer is only valid for that day, Saturday the 26th, and to benefit from it you must purchase tickets at through the Web with a time limit until Friday, October 25 at 12 noon.

Why the 26th?

Because it is the day Ebo was born, and this wonderful baby gorilla is a symbol of conservation. Ebo is the name of a small and valuable forest of Cameroon which houses a group of 25 gorillas “in critical danger” of extinction and also gives name to an important Research and Conservation Project of this species in which the BIOPARC Foundation.
