How Much Is A Pet Gorilla
Introduction
Gorillas are the largest primates on earth. With their humanlike characteristics, it’s easy to see why someone might want to have one as a pet. However, owning a gorilla is illegal in the United States. The only way you can own a gorilla legally is if you are a sanctuary or zoo and have the appropriate permits and licenses. This article will deal with this topic more in depth
We’ll explore each section in more detail as we go through our process of writing an engaging blog post!
You can’t own a pet gorilla in the United States.
- You can’t own a pet gorilla in the United States.
- You can own a pet gorilla in other countries.
- If you want to own a pet gorilla, you’ll need to apply for a permit from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS).
- If you get that permit…you still won’t be able to keep your ape as an indoor pet—it must remain outdoors at all times unless accompanied by its owner or keeper. The USFWS also requires that you house your simian friend in a cage with “securely affixed top panels” and “an indoor enclosure,” which means no more free time on the couch watching Netflix with your new hairy best friend!
There are legal ways to own gorillas.
- If you are in the United States, you can own a gorilla.
- If you are in the United Kingdom, you can own a gorilla.
- If you are in Australia, although it is not legal to own a gorilla without proper permits and licenses, this has never been enforced because all Australians have been too busy laughing at each other’s accents and eating Vegemite on toast with ketchup to notice that they have been breaking the law since Federation.
- In Germany it is illegal to own a pet gorilla but there is no record of anyone ever being charged or fined under this legislation because German authorities have better things to do than enforce laws against owning pets such as gorillas (like enforcing laws against murder).
The list goes on: France has no restrictions on gorilla ownership; Canada allows people who apply for permits through its Department of Environment (and pay $700) to get one; etcetera!
Are Gorillas Pets
A gorilla is not a pet. It’s a wild animal, and it needs to be treated as such.
Gorillas are not dangerous animals, but they can be if you don’t respect them enough. They are known for their strength and speed – which means that even though you won’t get hurt by one, you’re still at risk of being hurt by one if you don’t know how to approach them correctly.
A gorilla can be kept in zoos, sanctuaries and even private collections (but not as pets).

Can I get a baby gorilla as a pet?
Sorry to break it to you, but no. The only way for you to have a gorilla as a pet is through illegal means and that’s not something that we want to be associated with. We’d rather have your business if you’re going to own one of these animals.
Where can I buy a baby gorilla
If you’re looking for a baby gorilla and want to adopt one from a private breeder, think again. It’s illegal to buy or sell gorillas in the United States. That means only zoos, rehabilitation centers and sanctuaries can legally provide gorillas for sale.
It’s also worth noting that not all rehabilitation centers are equipped to care for a gorilla or other primates, so it’s important to do your research before settling on one as an adoptive parent.
How much do primates cost
The cost of a primate depends on a variety of factors, including the type of primate you want. A chimpanzee, for example, is quite expensive and can cost upwards of $100,000. The price tag for this type of primate also depends on its age and gender. A younger female chimp will be more expensive than an older male chimp because females are more valuable in the breeding business.
Primate prices also vary by location. For example, gorillas from zoos in colder climates will be less expensive than those from zoos in warmer climates because they tend to have longer lifespans in cooler temperatures (larger body size makes them more difficult to survive).
Can you have a pet gorilla in California
No, you can’t have a gorilla as a pet in California. You may own a pet gorilla in other countries and states, including the United States.
If you want to own a pet gorilla in California, you probably won’t be able to do it without some paperwork. If you’re not worried about getting into trouble with the law or making sure that your new pet is well taken care of, then please remember: owning exotic animals is illegal in most places. But if this doesn’t concern you and all that matters is being able to take good care of your animal friend for its entire life span (which could be over 50 years), then having an exotic animal can make for one heck of an experience!
You cannot have a gorilla as a pet
The good news is that yes, you can own a gorilla. The bad news is that it’s illegal to have one as a pet in the United States. However, there are ways to own gorillas and other primates legally. If you want to buy a baby gorilla or another species of primate, you’ll need to find an accredited breeder who adheres to federal regulations regarding the sale and care of such animals.
Where do these breeders sell their primates? Most US dealers keep their stock at home in enclosures set up for animal husbandry purposes. These facilities typically cost around $10K-$40K each year (not including the price of any equipment), depending on how much space they provide for your new family member(s).
And what kind of money are we talking about here? The average price tag per monkey varies wildly depending on its age—the younger they are, the more expensive they’ll tend toward being
Conclusion
Gorillas are not domestic animals, so they’re not legal to own in most states. You can, however, have a pet primate if you live in a state where it’s allowed and if you have a special permit. A gorilla is a very large animal that requires lots of space and care. It can be dangerous to be around them because they don’t know how strong they are. If you think owning one would be fun, then look up what laws apply where you live before looking any further into it!
