Gibbon Conservation Center (GCC)
The mission of the Gibbon Conservation Center (GCC) is to prevent the extinction of gibbons—small Southeast Asian apes—and to advance the study, propagation, and conservation of the species by establishing secure captive gene pools in case attempts to preserve species or subspecies in the wild fail. GCC provides a safe haven for all gibbon species as a complement to protecting them in the wild. GCC educates the public, assists zoos and rescue centers in better captive management, encourages noninvasive behavioral studies, and supports ongoing field conservation projects. GCC is a non profit organization, #95-4256306, and the only facility in the world devoted exclusively gibbons. GCC specializes in behavioral studies on gibbons, collected by students, scientists, and volunteers working at the Center.  Several mated pairs have produced offspring, making an important contribution to the world’s captive gibbon population, both in terms of numbers and in the genetic diversity of the species.  Offspring are housed at the Center in species-typical family units until they reach adulthood.  At that time, they are housed with a mate, which imitates what normally happens in the wild. GCC also offers advice, free of charge, to zoos, government agencies, veterinary universities, and gibbon rescue centers throughout the world.  A portion of donations received by GCC is given to projects devoted to the conservation of wild gibbon populations, especially those in Java, India, Kalimantan, China, and Vietnam. GCC hosts scholars and scientists from around the world, who come to study the largest group of gibbons in the Western Hemisphere.  Colleges and universities and elementary through high school groups visit GCC year round.  Volunteer primate keepers maintain the feeding, data collection, and maintenance of the center. Director Alan R. Mootnick founded GCC in 1976.  Mootnick is an acknowledged expert in the identification and care of gibbons.  He has published 19 peer-review papers and given countless presentations to professional zoological, scientific, conservation, and public groups.  He is the studbook keeper for five species and Husbandry Advisor for the Gibbon Species Survival Plan. GCC is a 501(c)(3) charity, and exists only on donations, grants, and retail sales.  GCC Memberships and gibbon “adoptions” are available.
