Показать описание
Calaya, a western lowland gorilla, was filmed giving birth to her first offspring, a male named Moke, at the Smithsonian National Zoo in Washington, DC.
The arrival of Moke, which means "junior" or "little one" in the Lingala language of Africa, is the zoo's first such gorilla birth in nine years.
Western lowland gorillas are critically endangered with only an estimated 100,000 left.

Makes my day. Now, if only humans, i.e., poachers, would let them live.

In the wild, how long would a gorilla baby stay with his mom until it becomes a mature adult?
When would it choose to leave its mom to live independently?

All these people who say gorillas are like humans are so confused. We are like them. We come from the same something that makes us so similar.
