Historical Newborn Gorilla and Mother Bond Right After Birth
On April 17, 2018, cameras at the Smithsonian Zoo captured a very rare moment. The moment a mother gorilla welcomed into the world a baby boy gorilla. Why is such a big deal? Well, Moke (meaning "junior" or "little one" in the Lingala language) is the first Western Lowland gorilla born in just under a decade. Proud mother Calaya was captured bonding with him moments after his birth, and we are all in love!
