Adopt a gorilla for yourself or someone special and help to protect all the world's remaining gorillas.
Amy Akago is an adorable 17-year-old gorilla living in the Virungas in Rwanda. She was given the name Akago, which means "unlucky" in the Kinyarwanda language, when she was rescued from a snare by rangers as a baby. Amy is one of just 790 mountain gorillas left in the world.
For just £25 for one year you can adopt Amy and help save a species from extinction.
As an adoptive parent you will receive:
- A personalized certificate
