A new exhibit, Chimpanzees of the Mahale Mountains, opening August 13, 1998 presents chimpanzees in a naturalistic savannah/forest habitat and explains logging's effect on chimpanzees and other African wildlife. The Los Angeles Zoo is an exciting field trip destination, serves as a teacher resource center with workshops and curriculum materials to support science teaching in the classroom, and can become a catalyst for language development programs, creative writing efforts, and interdisciplinary curriculum projects.
