Oregon Zoo - Cool Creature Crawl - 11: White Cheeked Gibbon

It’s the Oregon Zoo Cool Creature Crawl! It’s time to pick out our next animal! Today let’s make…a white cheeked gibbon!

White-cheeked gibbons are built for life in the trees. Their arms and legs are very long, and they have short thumbs and long fingers. Using this combination, they swing hand-over-hand through the forest, covering up to 10 feet per swing!

The age and gender of a white-cheeked gibbon is obvious at a glance. When they reach adulthood, the males are black and the females are yellow! 
Head on over to the Oregon Zoo to find ALL 20 Cool Creatures hidden throughout. Don’t worry, I’m gonna cover them daily right here as well!

The Oregon Zoo welcomed 20 brand new animals this week, but they don’t have fur, feathers or scales. These new life-sized arrivals are made of wood, and they were created by me! Join me for a brand new scavenger hunt at the zoo: the Cool Creature Crawl! Hidden throughout the zoo are twenty of my favorite creatures that call this place home. See if you can find ‘em all! Here’s a solid list that you can screenshot for your journey! Can’t visit? No worries! I’ll be talking about each and every one over the next 20 days right here; sharing fun facts, behind-the-scenes, animal close-ups and more! This scavenger hunt isn’t going anywhere either! You can visit these animals at the Oregon Zoo for the foreseeable future! Send me photos if you find em!
