Schön, wenn Gorilla- Damen als Ersatz-Mama da sind und sich um so einen kleinen Kerl kümmern. In der Gruppe groß werden, ist das schönste! Alles Liebe und Gute, Kleiner!😊❤❤❤❤

Tamboli his mother bless her heart must have been in terrible pain, they naturally hide illness because in the wild it’s a sign of weakness. Her liver and brain were covered in cancerous lesions, which are horrendously painful but she loved and was patience with that little baby till they had to euthanize her, her last moments were loving on her son as she just laid still. The troop and especially Dahlia stepped up and it was a quick learning curb for him to take a bottle through the mesh but he was a little trooper. I have to believe in the Lord looking over this precious creature he created so he could not just survive but thrive. Such beautiful creatures that gorilla’s are and how they truly look out for each other in their troops. ♥️🦍♥️
