Gonzo is a cranky koala villager in the Animal Crossing series. He first appeared in Doubutsu no Mori, and after his appearance in Doubutsu no Mori e+, he remained absent from the series until Animal Crossing: New Leaf - Welcome amiibo. Data for him exists in Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer but ultimately remains unused. He is the only cranky koala in the series. His catchphrase, "mate," is a common colloquialism for "friend" in Australian English, referencing the native location of koalas. His e-Reader card profile, RV description in Welcome amiibo, and his Pocket Camp description all reference his love of gorgonzola cheese, and his favorite saying references cheese, as his name is derived from gorgonzola.

In New Horizons, Gonzo has the nature hobby and may be found reading a book pertaining to an item he is studying, which can be either flowers, bugs, fish, or fossils.

Profile:	Gonzo has an almost creepy obsession with blue cheeses, although he won't mention it in public. He even calls Gorgonzola cheese "Gor-GONZO-la", if you can believe it. Cheese-lovers are a strange bunch...
