Gorilla - Apenheul - Apeldoorn NL - Figurative Public Sculpture on Waymarking.com

The bronze statue itself is about 1 meter high and stands on a large boulder in front of the entrance to Dierenpark Apenheul.
Because many visitors want to pet the Gorilla, there are beautiful shiny spots on the sculpture.
