Share the Care of a Baby Chimpanzee

  • In September, ‪@MarylandZooTV‬ in Baltimore welcomed baby chimpanzee Maisie from the Oklahoma City Zoo after her mother failed to properly care for her. Although they did not hesitate to bring her to The Maryland Zoo, this incredible opportunity is not without its own set of challenges. Caring for an infant chimp comes with significant expenses, including the costs of diapers, formula, and enrichment. Adding to that, Maisie requires 24-hour care, resulting in additional staff expenses.
    To help offset some of these costs, Maryland Zoo’s Giving Tuesday (Giving ZooDay!) fundraiser is a baby shower for Maisie for those that would like to help "share the care." The fundraising goal is $50,000. Just today they have unlocked a $10,000 matching gift from a very generous anonymous Zoo supporter and are now over halfway to their goal!
    The web address for donations is www.Marylandzoo.org/babyshower

    When folks pay such high entrance fees to bring a family of four to the zoo, they must accept who really pays for Maizie’s rescue. When fundraiser events bring in millions, they are the resources she benefits from as well. I thank God he made her adorable for a reason. We all still tend The Garden to feel whole. It’s a beautiful thing.

    It seems, from the videos I have seen, that mothers in zoos often 'fail' at caring for infants. Is this because they are in the zoo environment, or does this happen in the wild as well? This baby is beautiful... Hope she continues to thrive.

    • @niklFIT
      @niklFIT 3 года назад +8

      It happens mostly to 1st time moms, who are not experienced and have not seen other moms raise their baby chimps. Usually the main issue is that the mom does not hold her baby close to her nipple so it is starving, or sometimes the mom does not develope the mom-baby bond and simply does not care for the baby at all. It can be due to stress or a complicated painful labor, and it does happen in the wild, it is not that rare. We humans have socially required responsibilities to care for our children, beside the natural instinct and need, and some people also give their babies up. Animals like chimps only have the instinct and gene memory to care for their children, and sometimes it can fail.
