Gorillas of San Antonio

Shana, Juba, and B’wenzi are three silverback gorillas who many people love and have enjoyed watching footage of on YouTube over the years when they lived at the Dallas Zoo. They now live at the zoo in San Antonio, Texas. My intention in making this channel is to share with those who love gorillas and anyone else footage of them in their new home, along with footage of silverback Ajari and the three females he lives with.

Zola, a silverback who also lived at the Dallas Zoo with them and who was the most popular of them all (known for his spinning in water and chest beating), was supposed to move to San Antonio with them but unfortunately passed away in November of 2025. R.I.P.! The “@“ below is the YouTube channel where you can find the older footage of the four of them when they lived at the Dallas Zoo.

(I’m not sponsored by or an affiliate of the San Antonio Zoo, if that should be said, but am just doing this out of love for these amazing animals. Thank you for watching!)
