Mother Gorilla Kissing And Cradling Her Newborn Baby Is Adorable (Video)

The staff at the zoo are 'cautiously optimistic' of young Moke's future. They will allow Calaya to nurse him naturally and feel confident that her mothering skills will work out well. The staff helped her prepare by showing her photos of other mother gorillas, by giving her a baby gorilla toy, showing her how to nurse the baby when it comes and other relevant parental behaviors.
