HOW TO ENTER:

  1. Find an example of gorilla behavior online. See examples at the Gorilla Fund Website or find other examples.
  2. Create a short video of you imitating some aspect of gorilla behavior — its walk, sounds, facial expressions, and more. No costumes are required, in fact, they’re discouraged. Tell us which gorilla behavior you are imitating and then show us that you can communicate just like a gorilla does.
  3. Once you have made your video, go to SeymourSimon.com. At the top of the homepage, in the yellow bar, you will see a button that looks like this:


    This makes it easy for you to upload your video to Seymour’s website! 
  4. Don’t forget to be safe whenever you upload a video of yourself to the Internet: NO personal information in the video (never give your last name, your phone number, your email address or tell where you live), and be sure you have permission from your parents or guardian.
  5. THIRD PRIZE: Twenty randomly chosen submissions will receive personally autographed photographs of Seymour Simon.

    SECOND PRIZE: Ten randomly chosen submissions will receive personally autographed copies Seymour Simon’s GORILLAS book.

    FIRST PRIZE: The top five best videos will be posted on the Seymour’s website for everyone to see.

    GRAND PRIZE: The creator of the video judged the BEST GORILLA IMITATION will win a free SKYPE session with Seymour Simon and their class! Seymour Science LLC, in its sole discretion, will choose who is awarded the first, second, third place, and Grand prizes. 
  6. The Deadline: All entries must be received by midnight, Dec 31, 2010. 
  7. The Rules: For a copy of the Official Contest Rules, send a self-addressed, stamped envelope to: Go Gorilla!, P.O. Box 420, Craryville, NY 12521
