Maybe they should use a long tube like they do with other baby gorillas with foster moms like Jameela, The long tube allows them not to have to go close to the cage.Poor little guy always looks a little scared. My heart breaks for his mom that is gone. Thankfully he has a good caregiver
God bless Dalila! She's doing an absolutely fantastic job with Makongo. She really takes great care of him. I pray this whole gorilla family be blessed always. Thank you & bless you for these amazing vids. 🦍🦍🦍❤❤❤❤🙏🏻🙏🏻 Dalila seemed very restless & like she couldn't find a comfortable spot. She definitely wanted out!!🦍🦍❤❤😁
@doriswashington9708 As I mentioned in my video, Dalila once loved being outdoors, but she has sacrificed a lot of her personal time to care for the baby. She is undertaking a wonderful task, full of love and hope. Every member of the group recognizes her contributions and applauds her efforts.🤝🤝😘Thank you ♥️🦍🙌🙌🙌I'm glad you enjoy the story of this family!
@@AllThingsGorilla This family is amazing & Dalila is a true blessing she takes the best care of Makongo. He couldn't have gotten a better foster mom. I love seeing your videos of this wonderful family. Bless you & I truly thank you for them.😁❤🦍🦍❤❤❤❤
It must be very difficult to feed Baby Makongo sometimes but the caregivers do a great job. Thanks for the video, it's always so nice to see the family and the baby.❤❤❤❤
Based on my observations, the baby tends to drink milk better in the morning and evening👶🍼💪♥️. In the afternoon, he seems a bit distracted😅, but he does supplement with some solid food during that time👶👏♥️🦍.
Dalila is doing a wonderful job of caring for Makongo. Under her care he'll grow into a wonderfully independent silverback. It's lovely to see Lomako looking relaxed, it's got to be a relief for him to know his baby is safe and being cared for well. I'm loving Dalila's side-eye to the keepers when the door wasn't open and am glad she got to enjoy some relaxing time in the sunshine. 💖💖🦍
As I mentioned in my video, Dalila used to love spending time outdoors☁️☀️, but she has given up much of her own time to take care of the baby. She is doing something great👍👸🦍🥰, filled with love and hope♥️. Every member acknowledges her role and cheers for her 👏.
Dalila has raised seven of her own offspring👍, so she is very experienced💪😍👏. She knows the baby needs milk, and she has been patiently taking care of the baby all along.♥️👸🦍👍
You are doing great Dalila! You are impressive. A strong. Loving and nurturing mom you are to baby Makonko! The world is rooting for you both! May God bless you with many more years to raise your beautiful baby!
Yes, they are both beautiful! Queen Dalila is a true queen 👸, with that glance of hers that commands respect without anger. Baby Makongo is simply adorably explosive! 🥰🥰😘👶👸🦍🦍♥️♥️👏
I’m so glad I came across this channel recently. I have several videos saved to watch so I can start trying to catch up. If anyone from this channel happens to read this comment, thank you for taking the time to edit the videos to include names of the individuals and a little backstory. It is appreciated! It looks the little one sure has become attached to his wonderful surrogate mother.
Dalila is the oldest female gorilla in the troop. Zola, Mosi, and Nala are all descendants of the late silverback Makula. Loango is Makula’s brother. Silverback Lomako took over the troop in 2022. Baby Makongo is the descendant of silverback Lomako, and his mother, Tamidol, passed away on August 12th this year due to illness. Since Tamidol’s death, Dalila has taken on the responsibility of caring for baby Makongo as his adoptive mother.
Makongo isn’t feeling hungry just yet. On his time, not theirs. The little bugger! He’s so loveable and a big shout out for Dahlia being a great mom for Makongo! ❤🦍🥰
I wish the zoo would make it easier for Dalila to get around and climb up with the baby. She is elderly and trying to carry baby Makongo at the same time. Very dangerous. 😞🙏🦍💕
Agree！🙌You’re absolutely right🤝🤝. When I saw Dalila carrying the baby to the top of the frame, I was really worried about them♥️. But as seen in the video, Queen Dalila is still very strong💪, and she moves steadily with every step👍. Even while holding the baby, she doesn’t wobble at all. Dalila is amazing! 👸🦍♥️👍💪
Hello 👋 Beautiful Dalila and Baby Makongo ❤. I haven't gotten to watch videos lately because I live in Georgia were we just had a real bad Storm. It has done a lot of damage and took a lot of life's. 😢😭. We are still with out water 💦 and Power .Thank you Dalila for all the care Love 😍 and protection you are giving to Baby Makongo ❤. God Bless You Both 🙏🏻🕊😇❤️. LOVE 😍 ALWAYS TO 🎉and Happiness 😂😅😊❤
The little monkeys are mangabeys, and they live together with the gorillas. They are quite mischievous. Besides the silverback, there are two other male gorillas, Loango and Mosi. They have been castrated, which affects their hormone levels, so they don’t have the same muscle mass as the silverback. The castration decision was made by the EAZA so the zoo is following orders. The decision was made so that surplus males can remain in their family groups without being aggressive to the silverback.
Thanks for your explanation! I also did not understand the appearance of the 2 growing males. I had understood in another response from abroad that castration is only applied here in Europe, to the great frustration of a number of followers. It will probably only be done in situations where there can be no exchange of gorillas. I think that could be a good solution, without the 'boys' suffering.
When jam was this small she was introduced early to the bottle and was a little use to humans.This baby lost his mother and i dont know if they took the baby away to get him use to taking the bottle. Hmm The little baby maybe sense if he goes to take the bottle he MAY lose another mama.Even though i saw him drink before maybe he's not hungry. ❤
Erm, can’t the keep give the bottle to Dalila to give to Makongo? Now I’m making up stories: Perhaps Dalila saw Tamidol with Makongo and lamented that her time for having babies was over. She may have been gazing at the baby longingly, her heart full of sadness. But now, by a twist of fate, she has a duty to raise Makongo and her heart is full of joy and love 💕🤷♀️😬
@shawna6683 Dalila also enjoys drinking milk. She actively squeezes the nipple of the bottle, and if you give her a bottle of milk, she might even finish the baby’s bottle as well😂😂😂.
On thing for sure is that Dalila does NOT want Makango suckling on her. You could see it the other day and in this video she kept blocking him. That seems to be where he wants his milk from…so sad.
Dalila cannot meet the baby's growth needs, and the zookeeper also prefers that the baby drinks from a bottle, as it provides sufficient nutrition. If Makongo relies solely on Dalila for milk, he may end up rejecting the zookeeper's bottle.
@@renewashington791that’s because when they got Jameela, Freddy was already breast feeding Kayembe. These keepers really know how to train them and that’s a wonderful thing.
Como eu sou apaixonada por gorilas e acompanho varias família de gorilas como citei...Acabou de chegar pra mim a notificação dessa família, e é mais uma que irei acompanhar diariamente...Gostaria de saber o porque o bebê mokongo foi adotado por Dalila??? ❤🥰🥰
Because the baby’s biological mother passed away due to illness on August 12 of this year when the baby was just 4 months old, the oldest female gorilla in the troop, Dalila, has taken on the responsibility of raising Makongo.♥️🦍🙏
Am surprised she does not encourage M to go to bottle for milk as Dis not dumb she clearly understands the zookeepers. Mosi every time see him can’t believe he’s real with those long thin arm so out proportion lol
Dalila is very experienced in caring for the baby. I have observed many times that she doesn’t force Makongo to drink milk; instead, she provides companionship and brings the baby to the zookeeper. If the baby is hungry, he will finish an entire bottle of milk; if he isn't hungry, he will act like he did in the video and not drink at all.
Can you imagine how he would have looked with those long arms as a silverback? Now we will never know what he would have become because of his castration.😢
When baby Makongo was 4 months old, her biological mother, Tamidol, passed away due to illness. The zoo sought out the oldest and highest-ranking female gorilla in the same troop, Dalila, to become the baby’s foster mom. More precisely, it was a mutual choice between Dalila and the baby. The zookeepers allowed all the family members, except for the silverback, to enter the room to be with the baby, and in the end, Dalila stepped up and became Makongo's foster mother.👸🦍♥️💪👍
This looks like a miserable environment for them all and the constant noise from the public is intrusive. Dalila is doing a sterling job looking after little one but she looks tired out and needs some spoiling herself ❤
I agree about the noise. It doesn't seem that loud here as I have seen at other places. They should try and enforce some noise restrictions for the benefit of the animals. Or at least give them a quiet area to escape to if needed. Maybe because I don't have children but it seems to me many parents don't correct their children in public places. I understand its not easy and people get excited but it really bothers me when it seems like some parents just let their kids run wild. They may have the innate ability to block it out but it is not always easy for everyone else.
That's exactly Dalila's style. When she was raising her own child, Ayo, she was the same way. She’s not the type of mother who constantly holds her baby. If you’ve seen Ayo’s videos, you might understand Dalila even better. And when the baby needs her, she steps in immediately, standing up against any threat, no matter who it comes from.🤝🤝♥️🦍👸💪
Poorly worded title, don't you think? You don't really sacrifice anything if you're doing it for love, and based upon the few videos I have the pleasure to watch, she may not have birthed this future king of the Jungle, but make no mistake: Makongo is HERS!❤
I agree with you, and why I used that title because I know what Dalila was like before-she would relax in the sun outdoors and spend time with her family. Since she became the adoptive mother of Makongo, she has sacrificed a lot of her own time. She had to adjust her schedule to accommodate the feeding and care of baby Makongo. That’s why I used the word “sacrifice” to describe it. Of course, from the perspective of love, Dalila doesn’t really need the word “sacrifice” to describe her actions.
The lump on Dalila's neck has been there for 10 years, and it shouldn’t affect her health. At 52 years old, it may be safer for her not to intervene.🤝🤝♥️🦍💪
What's up with Loango?? The information up there shows that he is a male and that he is 19 years old. Yet, he doesn't really have a silver back, and he's pretty skinny for a male gorilla that age. From what I understand, gorillas reach maturity around 14 or so years old. So what happened? Is something wrong with him?
In this troop, male gorillas Mosi and Loango have both been castrated. They will never become handsome silverbacks🥹💔🦍. The castration decision was made by the EAZA, and the zoo is following orders. This decision was made so that surplus males can remain in their family groups without being aggressive toward the silverback.
🤝🤝I agree with you. Makongo's feeding hasn’t always gone smoothly🤨, which is concerning, but he will be supplemented with some solid food👏💪. I hope he stays healthy and thrives♥️🦍👶.
@@karolineharuno7733He was castrated as a baby. There was a surplus of male gorillas and nowhere near enough space in zoos to house them. Castrated males can stay in their birth families because they won’t become silverbacks and challenge their fathers.
Because Loango was castrated, it affects his hormone levels, so he doesn't have the impressive muscles of a silverback 💪. The castration decision was made by the EAZA, so the zoo is following orders. The decision was made to allow surplus males to remain in their family groups without becoming aggressive toward the silverback.
