Mooch had a few days in the Torbay area of Devon, which is also known as the English Riviera. This was near the end of the Great Gorillas public art event in 2013 to celebrate Paignton Zoo's 90th birthday. So Mooch did tourist things and went gorilla hunting at the same time.

Paignton


Mooch found several large and small Great Gorillas in Paignton.
These two large gorillas are Dragilla and Flagged.  (07-Oct-2013)
