    Anyone have any info on the park's 7 gorillas? I saw that Pole Pole was recently separated from the main group. Are he and Schorch/the main group rotated in the outdoor exhibits? Is the indoors onshow?

    (Visiting here, Palmitos Park and Parco de los Cocodrilos next spring on a study tour with my uni)

    I have no firsthand knowledge as have never been but I believe;

    1. There is no indoor public viewing.

    2. There is only one large outdoor area, so presumably you can't see the group and the isolates at the same time. There used to be a smaller outdoors too, but they knocked it into one bigger enclosure.

    This is not recent information though.
