Fate un viaggio VR per l'habitat di sette specie e sub-specie di grande scimmia!

Eastern Mountain Gorillas

Eastern Lowland Gorillas

Western Lowland Gorillas

Bornean Orangutans

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

Please scan your headset's QR code (tap the small white gear icon at the bottom middle of your screen) to ensure you get the best visual experience in virtual reality. If your headset didn't come with a QR code, try searching for your headset's model name and "QR" on the internet.

This app supports both "no-touch" style VR headsets such as the original Google Cardboard and newer "tap" style headsets such as Google Cardboard V2. If you don't have a button on your headset, look down at the blue gear icon when the app begins and then tap the "change to gaze mode" option before putting your phone into your headset.

If you have a 4" iPhone, you may achieve a better visual experience by placing a pencil or similar-sized object inside your headset in order to better align the center of the your phone's screen with the headset's lenses.
