Gibbons wake at dawn! As the sun warms the enclosures, you will see an arm poke out of a sleeping box, and then perhaps a leg, a head, and finally each gibbon is awake! There'll be some grooming, some yawning, and a little chatter. They'll stretch a little and swing down to make sure no trespassers have come in the night to claim their territory. Just then one gibbon family starts their morning song and everyone is up! All the gibbon families rise to the call and in their family groups join in with their unique territorial calls. Gibbon Center staff never need alarm clocks, some of the songs can be heard up to 2 miles away! (Oh and did we mention they break into song periodically throughout the day?)
