JONES FAMILY GORILLA PRESERVE




 

The Jones Family Gorilla Preserve is one of the largest and most exceptional
habitats for western lowland gorillas in the country.

Covering nearly an acre of land, this lush expanse of trees, grasses and rocky
outcroppings is home to three adult females: Bawang, Monifa and Kimani and a
silverback male, Oscar Jonesy. This grouping replicates a gorilla family much as
you see in the wild and has been brought together for breeding as part of the
AZA’s Species Survival Plan for western lowland gorillas. San Francisco Zoo &
Gardens has had a successful and prolific breeding program since the 1950s that
continues to this day.

A wall of viewing windows lets you see the gorillas up-close as they rest, play,
eat and interact with one another. In addition, there are innovative graphics to
help tell the story of these gentle giants.

A path links visitors directly from the Jones Family Gorilla Preserve to the
Leanne B. Roberts African Savanna, where they can experience more of Africa’s
amazing wildlife.

San Francisco Zoo & Gardens Accessibility Statement


ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT


COMPLIANCE STATUS:

We strongly believe in the importance of making the Internet available and
accessible to everyone. Therefore, we are dedicated to providing a website that
is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of their circumstances
or abilities.

To achieve this goal, we strive to adhere closely to the World Wide Web
Consortium's (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA
level. These guidelines provide instructions on how to make web content
accessible to people with various disabilities. By following these guidelines,
we ensure that our website is accessible to individuals with visual impairments,
motor impairments, cognitive disabilities, and more.

Our website incorporates technologies that enhance accessibility at all times.
We utilize an accessibility interface that allows users with specific
disabilities to customize the website's user interface (UI) according to their
needs.

Additionally, our website employs an AI-based application that continuously
optimizes its accessibility level. This application enhances the website's HTML
and adjusts its functionality and behavior for screen-reader users and
individuals with motor impairments.

If you come across any malfunctions or have suggestions for improvement, we
welcome your feedback. Please contact the website's operators at the following
email address: [contactEmail].

SCREEN READER AND KEYBOARD NAVIGATION:

Our website has implemented the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet
Applications) technique and other behavioral modifications to ensure that
visitors using screen readers can effectively read, understand, and interact
with the website. Upon entering the site, screen reader users are prompted to
enter the Screen-Reader Profile, enabling them to browse and navigate the
website seamlessly. Here are some important ways our website addresses screen
reader requirements:

SCREEN-READER OPTIMIZATION:

We employ a background process that comprehensively learns the website's
components, ensuring ongoing compliance even during updates. This process
provides screen readers with meaningful data using ARIA attributes. For
instance, we provide accurate form labels, descriptions for actionable icons
(e.g., social media icons, search icons, cart icons), validation guidance for
form inputs, and proper roles for elements like buttons, menus, and modal
dialogues. Additionally, the background process scans all website images,
generating accurate and meaningful descriptions using
image-object-recognition-based ALT tags. It also extracts embedded text within
images using optical character recognition (OCR) technology. Users can activate
screen reader adjustments at any time by pressing the Alt+1 keyboard
combination. Upon entering the website, screen reader users receive automatic
announcements to enable the Screen-Reader mode.

KEYBOARD NAVIGATION OPTIMIZATION:

The background process enhances the website's HTML and adds JavaScript code to
enable keyboard operability. This includes features such as navigating the
website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operating dropdown menus with arrow
keys, closing them with Esc, triggering buttons and links using the Enter key,
navigating between radio buttons and checkboxes with arrow keys, and filling
them in with the Spacebar or Enter key. Keyboard users can access quick
navigation and content-skip menus at any time by pressing Alt+1 or by finding
them as the first elements while navigating using the keyboard. The background
process also handles triggered popups by focusing the keyboard on them when they
appear, preventing the focus from drifting outside.

Our adjustments are compatible with popular screen readers like JAWS and NVDA.


DISABILITY PROFILES SUPPORTED ON OUR WEBSITE:

Our website provides various disability profiles to support individuals with
specific accessibility needs:

 * Epilepsy Safe Mode: This profile eliminates the risk of seizures caused by
   flashing or blinking animations and risky color combinations.
 * Visually Impaired Mode: This mode adjusts the website to accommodate users
   with visual impairments such as Degrading Eyesight, Tunnel Vision, Cataracts,
   Glaucoma, and others.
 * Cognitive Disability Mode: This mode offers assistive options for users with
   cognitive impairments such as Dyslexia, Autism, CVA, and others, helping them
   focus on essential website elements.
 * ADHD-Friendly Mode: This mode assists users with ADHD and Neurodevelopmental
   disorders in reading, browsing, and maintaining focus on the main website
   elements while reducing distractions.
 * Blindness Mode: This mode ensures compatibility with screen readers such as
   JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack, which are essential software for blind
   users.
 * Keyboard Navigation Profile (Motor-Impaired): This profile enables
   individuals with motor impairments to navigate the website using keyboard
   keys like Tab, Shift+Tab, and Enter. Users can also utilize shortcuts like
   "M" for menus, "H" for headings, "F" for forms, "B" for buttons, and "G" for
   graphics to jump to specific elements.



ADDITIONAL UI, DESIGN, AND READABILITY ADJUSTMENTS:

We offer several UI, design, and readability adjustments to enhance the user
experience for all visitors:

 * Font adjustments: Users can modify the font size, family (type), spacing,
   alignment, line height, and more.
 * Color adjustments: Users can select different color contrast profiles (light,
   dark, inverted, monochrome) and swap color schemes for titles, texts, and
   backgrounds using over seven different coloring options.
 * Animations: Epileptic users can stop all animations, including videos, GIFs,
   and CSS flashing transitions, with a single click.
 * Content highlighting: Users can emphasize important elements such as links
   and titles or choose to highlight only focused or hovered elements.
 * Audio muting: Users with hearing devices can instantly mute the entire
   website to avoid headaches or other issues caused by automatic audio
   playback.
 * Cognitive disorders: We utilize a search engine linked to Wikipedia and
   Wiktionary, allowing users with cognitive disorders to decipher the meanings
   of phrases, initials, slang, and other content.
 * Additional functions: We provide users with options to change cursor color
   and size, activate a printing mode, enable a virtual keyboard, and access
   many other features.



BROWSER AND ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY COMPATIBILITY:

We strive to support a wide range of browsers and assistive technologies,
allowing users to choose the tools that best suit their needs. Our website has
been extensively tested and works well on major systems, including Google
Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera, and Microsoft Edge. We ensure
compatibility with screen readers like JAWS and NVDA, both for Windows and MAC
users.


NOTES, COMMENTS, AND FEEDBACK:

While we have made significant efforts to make our website accessible to
everyone, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible or
lack adequate technological solutions. We are continuously improving our
accessibility features, incorporating new technologies, and working towards
achieving the optimal level of accessibility. If you require assistance or have
any feedback, please contact us at [contactEmail].
