5 years old gorilla Riki is so kind to his sister Sumomo. Although it was the first time for him to have a younger sibling, he is so good at caring the baby gorilla. It looked he wanted to hold and care for Sumomo all the time. 5歳のゴリラリキが、群れに復帰したばかりの赤ちゃんゴリラスモモにとても優しく接していました。 初めての年下の妹と触れ合うとは思えぬほど上手で丁寧に お世話をしてあげていました。 これまで末っ子でパワフルだったリキが、スモモにとっての優しいお兄ちゃんになっているのを見て感動しました。 リキはスモモを離さずずっと一緒にいたがっていました。
Не пишите ерунду.Таскают её все кому не лень.уже не знают,как её от себя оторвать.Матери она вообще не нужна.Сначала все хватали,было любопытно.Как надоела передают другому члену семьи.
What a lucky little girl, she is so well loved by her whole family. Sumomo will grow up safe, secure and confident within so many arms of love around her. Amazing family! ❤️♥️♥️♥️♥️💕🇨🇦
Riki reminds me of Gentaro taking care of Kintaro and Saambili caring for Mbani.😊 I see Haoko lurking about for his snatch and run when it's his turn 😍
1:07 😊 How darling is this?! Riki is an excellent big brother gently caring for his baby sister. Sumomo is learning how to live with the troop. 2:01Riki 😘 kisses baby sister. 5:45 One beautiful baby 💕 girl with a full coat. 6:37 Mom and dad are always close by to keep a watchful eye 😌. The Haoko family! 🥰🙏❤️😊.
Sumomo is so fortunate to have a large family like this. She will be cared for, and spoiled, if possible for a gorilla...lol They all waited almost a year for her to join the troop and Im sure this is why they are so possessive of her. She is so loved.
Her mother, who is completely indifferent, should still take care of her! Have you wondered how this little one is fed because she still needs to drink milk? for now, this sibling has a toy, it's not care!
@@debbiedavis8481 I know they raised her. Tell me when and how do they feed her if siblings take turns playing with her? Which of them brings the baby to feed on command? At the zoo, pregnant mothers are taught to bring a baby in case she can't nurse him, but surely no one here does anything like that. I've seen a starved chimpanzee, an orangutan, a gibbon, and all in Japanese zoos. Because there are no animal training programs that help in such situations. Let me remind you that a gorilla mother feeds a child up to 4 years old.
She seems pretty happy no matter who she’s with. She’s a well grounded baby and glad they are all thrilled to have her back, well everyone but Toto, the jury’s still out with her. ❤️❤️ That look on Toto’s face when Riki walked with the baby past her, like don’t bring that over here. 😂🤣
toto used to carry her around alot and Sumomo seemed attached to her. I think the siblings are helping now. Toto is getting up there in age. sweet girl
I just love the Haoko gorilla family, every gorilla in this family loves❤, loves💕, their new baby sister ! And you don’t see anyone trying to play or hurt her in anyway, just IDK 🤷♀️ getting to know the new baby and Momoko is a relaxed mom I think that’s why they just want to hold Sumomo ❤❤❤❤❤❤. Great video
What a loving wonderful family. All supportive of each other and taking care of the baby. Riki is so sweet with her. He doesn’t want to let Sumomo go 🦍♥️
Riki was the ultimate spoiled baby so suspect he will spoil Su like he was. I'll never forget when Haoka grabbed him as a baby and took off running with Riki's mama in hot pursuit screaming all the way! LOL Su is in good hands..
From my vantage point: Gentaro was/is much, much rougher with Kintaro which is why his parents exercised caution. For every time he was gentle you can count 2x of him dragging baby Kintaro and slam him in to a log or rock (and I'm not exaggerating). Both boys are very rough which is why the Momotaro family has a completely different vibe that the Haoko family. They also have different enclosures and family structures which could contribute to the Kintaro & Gentaro energy (not having grass, trees, enough space to run etc.) It's just one of the shortcomings of some zoos. Anywho, I'm ranting. I hope you have a great day ❤
He’s so sweet to his sister. He just wants to help. He is smart , he is mimicking his Mother and sister, He just wants to take care of her like the females in his family. Can’t wait to see Big Beautiful Silverback Daddy’s bonding with her when she gets little older. She may be afraid of him right now but I think he could be very protective of her like Annie’s father is with her. These Babies are so precious and just add more Life and happiness into the group. ❤🦍🦍🦍🦍🦍🦍🦍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟🫶
Momoko has loosened up more and more with every child she has. She knows she’s in good hands and trusts the family to be gentle. All of them have experience with a baby except for Riki and you can see how sweet he’s being. ❤
@@justbreathe_ Exactly 💯 Momoko knows and trusts her family. She lives with them we don't. They are all great gorillas. Riki is going on instinct alone, as he hasn't been around a baby in his life. Absolutely amazing to watch his gentle love and care for her. 🦍💙
Big Brother Riki keeps very alert for dangers for his new baby sister Sumomo🤗💞🌸🍀🌷💪🙏🦍They're such a calm, caring, very loving great ape family, it's so precious❣️🎋👑🥕🍎
Great video. Can anyone tell me how the baby is fed? Is this just the public viewing hour? Babies require a lot of milk and none of the females are lactating. The Vervet Foundation teaches tiny babies in this situation to crawl in and out of little cages placed around the family enclosure to get milk bottles.
@@sonyawilson1000 thank you. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching the videos with her and the family all caring for her, but in the back of my mind, I wondered who will feed her.
So glad to hear this. I was wondering about her feeding. Momoko wasn't able to feed her when she was born. It seems like they don't want to put her down. So loving.
@@kathynunez-fx5iu Sumomo is just starting to learn to live with the troop. She went from a room indoors being hand reared to a huge outdoor open area enclosure. I am sure for her, it's a lot to take in. Momoka and Riki try to put her down periodically, but she's got a super tight baby gorilla grip, and won't let go 😆. She's just not quite ready yet. For now she feels safe snuggled in someone's arms. Not to worry though. Those little cute 🥰 baby 🌺 girl gorilla legs will be running around the enclosure in no time 😀.
Interesting how different the troops are...Genki wouldn't let anyone near Kintaro. Perhaps because her first baby was taken from her and hand raised by humans. It's wonderful to see Sumomo getting love and care from all her family. 😊
I'm saying the same thing here, but the commenters are from another world and they think it's a living toy that everyone takes such "great" care of! A mother should be trained to bring her baby to caregivers for feeding, but nothing works here. Everyone's been tormenting and playing with this baby all day long and she's not eating anything! Mother is not interested in her at all! In my opinion, this child should find a surrogate mother who would take care of her and give her a sense of security, and here it is some chaos and incomprehensible what it is supposed to be. They should separate the mother and baby until a bond is formed between them and she starts nursing or bringing the baby to feed. I think it's more about selling tickets than about the welfare of this little gorilla!!!
@@GorillaForest Yes? and how do they force them to give up the child? and how many times a day do they eat ?once? After all, she should eat whenever she feels like it, she's not even a year old! She can't even sleep peacefully because someone is always taking her somewhere and playing with her! Have you ever seen a mother let her baby be carried all day without taking care of him herself?! Why has she been given to the herd already, so that they have something to play with, and when they get bored, what? I hope nothing happens to the little one. When she was born, I also wrote that her mother did not feed her, those conscious commentators told me that her sister would take care of her, do these people know anything about gorillas?
Momoko is a sharp contrast to Genki, who rarely let go of Kintaro. Momoko seems loving, but indifferent to whoever wants to care of Sumomo. She's more interested in eating it seems.
Que ❤️🩹 tan amable con que amor cuida su hermanita pequeñita y frágil y el espalda plateada se lo permite me encanta porque Momotaro y Genki no dejaban a Gentaro cuidar de Kintaro ahora sí porque es grande
Wer füttert das süße 🐒 Baby und warum ist es nicht bei seiner Mama 🦍⁉️ Die Familie umsorgt das Baby mit großer ❤ Liebe, aber davon wird es nicht satt 🤭 Leider kann ich kein Englisch, wüssten aber gern mehr über die ❤ Geschichte ❣️ Danke für das wunderschöne Video ❣️ 👩🦰Monika Hunger aus Berlin
there is a young girl gorilla at Appenhaul zoo her thumbs are white she so cute, her older sister is thandie and her name is vazi or something like that
You might be misinterpreting it. The mother might just be very relaxed and not overprotective ( like Genki is over Kintaro in a different Japanese Zoo) because the members of her troop, especially her direct kin, are very trustworthy.
Cecilia Castro-after her 5th baby...Momoko trusts her family to share the babysitting duties.She and Haoko are always keeping an eye on Sumomo. Haoko held her yesterday.
Momoko and Haoko are very experienced parents. Sumomo is their 4th baby together. Don't forget Momoko is also mother of Momotaro by silverback Bijou. If that baby even whimpers slightly, her parents will be by her side in a second. Toto who seems standoffish would even be there as backup. Toto may appear not as interested because in gorilla hierarchy she is not alpha female, Momoko is. Therefore the moment she is at the bottom of the group as the alpha's kids come before her. Remember how dominant Momoko is and what she did to Genki 25 years ago in the family hierarchy game. Toto will get her turn.
Eu não gosto quando Sumomo está com os outros irmãos e principalmente momoka que é toda desastradas...Adoro quando Komomo está com Sumomo sempre...Nem a própria mãe eu gosto quando pega a bebê...Momoko não tem muito carinho pela filha..😮

Agree to cute and adorable, so glad there is no jealousy just 💕
SUMOMO LOVE RIKI ❤
とても優しいお兄ちゃん✨
Sumomo has a busy life with al her family members. She seems to cope quite well.

Sumomo does resemble Kintaro (nephew); they are both being raised with love and caring. They will be wonderful parents themselves ❤️.
Pure cuteness! They all love their little baby girl!😍😍😍
I love how they all just pass the baby around.
It’s great to see that all the siblings are interested in baby girl 🥰🥰🥰
Reki is such a beautiful soul and loving to his baby sister😍😇

OMG ❤❤ eso es lo que siempre quería hacer Gentaro con Kintaro cuando era un bebé pero nunca lo dejaron los padres.
Gentaro arrastava Kintaro e queria brincar de lutar com Kintaro

Eu adoro essa família linda, mas eu fico mais aliviada quando a Sumomo está com a mãe ou com Komomo ❤❤
Riki scare me sometimes he at times be off the chain playing too much but he seems to be doing OK with Somomo 🙏🏽
This babysitting is harder than I thought
Oh Riki is so cute carrying his baby sister.Bless him.❤️🦍🇨🇦
How sweet Riki is with his little sister.
I’ve never seen a male carry a baby! ❤❤❤
No they don't they usually won't carry any other gorilla but Riki seems to have taken to it well.;)
How is little Sumomo getting fed?
Riicki ist so zärtlich zu seiner kleinen Schwester❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It’s concerning that Momoko isn’t feeling protective about the baby. Thank goodness Rickie is being gentle!

How did he get the baby from its mother
Where's the mother?
Also, she looks like Kintaro. 😊
Her mother Momoko is behind Riki and Sumomo in 0:10~ 🦍
She’s looking at her baby
The way Sumomo is being shared around the family ❤ She has even had time on dad's belly 😊
Riki is the only boy in a family of girls he's lucky he has dad to relate to.
What a big girl, love it, she is blessed to have a good brother, like Riki.

How awesome. This brother is... Wow❤❤❤❤❤

Think he is trying to stay away from Mom so he can hold the baby longer.❤
That's Riki's baby now 😊 love this family ❤

She's still a baby, but I haven't seen her feeding, so I'm wondering how the keepers are accessing her.
