Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Medicina VeterináriaWhile free-ranging gorilla populations are declining, captive gorillas face serious health issues such as obesity and heart disease. A proper dietary management is crucial to maintain healthy and thriving populations, but in captivity it can be difficult to provide diets that are both nutritionally and functionally equivalent to wild diets. During this study in Zoo Basel were evaluated two male gorillas, one silverback (16 years) and one blackback (12 years), two late-stage pregnant females (25 and 32 years) and two geriatric females (47 and 55 years). Diet adequacy was assessed through the analysis of the diet composition, individual nutrient intake, dietary enrichment program...
