Beautiful baby Kayembe and his adoptive mother Fredricka. Such a happy moment.
He is precious. The way he looks at his momma n reaches out to her is priceless. Absolutely amazing ❤️ 😍
I wish I could hold it.
Him.
Baby gorillas are so tiny when they're born. Their 4 or 5 lbs. seems so little for the big, powerful animal they'll grow to be. Gorilla moms are so gentle and wonderful with their babies. This is such a sweet video.
Coisa mais nojenta. Aberração.
😂😂reminds me of how tiny croc and gator babies are!! Just to grow into Dinos
Better than the monkey moms seen on a site.
@@helenj.goolsby873 especially macaques.
You are so right
I never realized just how extremely tiny a newborn gorilla truly is. You can feel that special loving bond between momma and baby just by seeing how she takes care and protect him. Congratulations Momma gorilla!❤️🦍❤️
🎶🐦🇺🇲
Mommy gorilla automatically knew to put her newborn on her head? Stronger necks than humans. So precious with all the love in his eyes towards his mom! 💜🐾💜
It's because of how they walk not a single thing to do with their neck
Exactly she knew her head was the best place to put him, to make him learn to grab her fur so that he'll always do it... Amazing beings
Mom so gently starts with her head then eventually on her back
What an adorable precious little creature . Mama is so proud and caring ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
🎉🎉🎉🎉
Oh my gosh I can't stand all of his cuteness. He is adorable 😍
He's adorable
And sadly (i work with gorillas), that baby born in total captivity will end up like is mom on antidepressant around 3 y.o. He is cute but there is a reason why gorillas dont breed in captivity... They are miserable. Captivity breeding shouldnt happen for a spiecie that we now can control into the wild.
@@CoachCaninQcThey give the gorillas antidepressants?
wow 😯
@@JeanEDeaux sadly yes.... not just gorillas but to many other spicies. Mostly the more "intelligent one" like elephants, orcas, Dolphins... Primates and wild animals search for food all Day around km and km of natural habitac. They eat, reproduce and form complexe social structures. All that they cant do in captivity. No food choice no reproduction even if they are not all sterilized. They cant even choose who is part of their group.
You see pretty ive seen ugly... gorillas fighting... even death of animals by agressions that wouldnt exist in the wild. At night when the zoo close and most animals are reduce to a prison cell, caged and sedated so they sont cause to much troubles.
Zoos have to change...
He is not adorable. He demands your respect and he is worthy of it.
What a tiny sweet baby he is.
hoping we see pictures of him as he grows....
That's the most precious little thing ever
Mama: "Do you like my hat?" lol What a cutie. ❤️
Mom and baby gorilla are so precious together. I love this video.
right after this video in 2021, the mother rejected this baby, thankfully another female took over as a surrogate after she abandoned him
Yes the amazing Fredericka "Freddie". And she is now also surrogate mama to baby Jameela along with little Kayembe.
Baby gorilla looking up and smiling at its momma... precious...
🦋💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🦋
So incredibly sweet.... A mother's love for her baby.
His biological mother actually rejected him from birth, & another 45yr old female in the pack (momma Freddy I believe) took him on as her own from day 1. Netflix has a livestream of them now! He's almost 2, & there's a new 6wk old baby girl too 😍
I love watching these gentle giants with their babies it’s so sweet 🥰🧸✌🏾
He’s the cutest little baby ever!! I wish I was able to cuddle with this precious little guy. Welcome to the world! ❤️
The stare in that baby's eyes he can be the king of the jungle and he doesn't even know it yet!! 💖🦍💖🦍💖🦍💖🦍💖🦍💖🦍🦍💖
You mean King of the ZOO?
@@promotethegame6963 unfortunately yes. 😢
But still cute and getting to see this up close is such a great thing. I hope their habitat is closer to a jungle setting as they would be in the wild. Beautiful creatures.
What a beautiful miracle. baby meets mom and adores her immediately. Seeing this makes my day brighter.
Mine too ❤
Just wish it was in the wild he is so beautiful and his mother so carefully walks slowly so he's safe. Amazing xxxx
YES YES!!
What a precious little soul they really are very much like us .😊
But unlike us they are not cruel for no reason. They are sweet and innocent
До чего же крохотные детёныши у таких крупных животных..
God bless that sweetheart and his momma 🙏🏻❤️❤️
Как мило и трогательно. Любовь и материнства. Всем счастья.
Мило и трогательно. Только тем в этом случае. Ужасно.
Those eyes when looking at her mama. Priceless
So much love ❤️ 😍
I had no idea they were THAT tiny at birth! Amazing!
yeah that's smaller than a human newborn!
Hope baby Gorilla and mama are well. I have never in my entire life seem such a huge mama gorilla. Excellent work. Franklin New England Zoo also just had a baby Gorilla a boy. God bless you 🙏❤️ you all.
That is so precious how do babies looking at mom with the prettiest smile ever That’s what you call love 💕 adorable 💕💕💕
❤
This is life! This is EVERYTHING!!🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️
🙏🏻🙏🏾🙏🏽
Pensar que tienen tanto en común con nosotros, amo a estos seres tan imponentes y espectaculares, son fascinantes.
This baby boy is the sweetest thing I’ve seen in a long time please make sure this baby is kept warm all throughout the winter I don’t want the little guy get sick!! I’m sure your zoo will do a great job👍God bless
Sweet little thing looks like he's smiling! He looks kinda frail, May God give him health and strength💪🏽. Kudos to the Zoo staff.
Omg! He is amazing! May he have a long and happy and healthy life, surrounded by love, and educated, well intentioned people!
AMAZING.....I mean just look at that little head and those little arms! just AMAZING
How exciting for this to happen. I hope he is doing well.
Como a Natureza é maravilhosa!!!!
Como a mãe cuida bem do bebê. 🥰
Adorable petite chérie 💛💛💛💛💛
Just beautiful. 🌟
What a little boy! Please, I want to see its growing. Don't forget to upload all about this. A whole beautiful and amazing miracle. Congratulations!
If you'd like to check it out, most zoo's now have cameras in many of the enclosures with animals who have had a baby recently. The zoo's individual website should allow you to access the enclosure cameras and sometimes you may even be able to catch the birth. They are not recordings but real time. They allow the public to watch and track the little ones progression as they grow and learn new things. It's also fun to watch the animals any time. Last winter the Smithsonian National Zoo had gotten snow and the giant pandas had cameras in their outdoor enclosure and they were having such a fun time! They had a hill and the cold made the snow ice and the panda bears were sliding down the hill, they'd run into each other and you could tell it was something new they had never done before. But normally they will put things the keepers have come up with for different enrichment activities to keep the animals thinking and using different natural instincts. It also keeps the animals busy so that they don't come up with different ways to rip their outdoor enclosures apart. Like they say about kids ....... there isn't anything good about a quiet animal. If they are quiet chances are they've gotten into something that is trouble. They are sorta like inmates in a prison (especially the different species of primates), they have 20+ hours, all the time in the world to think about how to destroy something or think of an escape plan! When they are bored they ALWAYS find someway to occupy themselves! Even if that mean a bear tearing a concrete plug from the bottom of the enclosures water pool or up rooting the trees that are in the enclosure.
A small otter will be fascinated by shiny little things including a nut or bolt holding the tank together with the decking and they have all the time in the world to play with it, bite it, and then they don't know any better and they take the nut off the screw. Then when it falls to the bottom of their tank they will start to play and work at the next one because again it's nice an shiny!
But just like the zoo employees and the keepers who care for the animals daily will sit and have baby watches they are looking at a screen and a live feed just as you can at home. The keepers do the least amount of work they can and NOT interfere with mom while she is in the process of delivering her baby. IF and it's so rare for something to happen and if it does that is when the keepers and vet staff decide to step in or not. They'd prefer if the animal went with the motherly instincts they have and deliver then start to clean and care for their babies. It's amazing to see and it's astonishing to see a first time mom deliver her baby alone, by herself, and she delivers as if she has done it one hundred times before.
But the enclosure cameras are so fun to watch. Sometimes it's a bit old and boring with the same ol' stuff being shown but they will try to divide up the animal enclosures that way they are in control and they can change the enclosures to the outdoor enclosures or even to switch the animals up so if people are following them they can see the variety of different animals and the different behaviors the animals do, most being the body movements that are very suttle its hard to see them. A macaque and some other primates will make a noise that their baby hears and knows that it's their mom calling for them and then if mom turns around and she will lift a back foot up gently and slow with her foot being parallel to the ground that is her telling her baby that she is getting ready to walk and that the baby runs up to catch her and mom lifts the baby up to hold on to her chest or the baby will have to jump and take a flying leap attempting to grab hold of the hair on her back pulling themselves up as if mom was giving piggy back rides.
Those innocent eyes of the baby gorilla 🦍 😍 made me cry 😢❤
So amazing
I saw mom with him on her back, but is that dad that was actually in that 3rd scene with him up on his back? That looked like dad doing that. Wow! Amazing. Baby is in good hands. Mom and dad are great parents.💕
I’ve heard that dads are not interacting with baby gorillas until the baby is about one to one and a half years old, so that’s most likely still his mom
@@DJ-nk4dqPlease google your response. Moms do the most nurturing but dad acts as the protector. he also plays with the baby. Gorilla babies need love and attention from both parents just as human babies do.
Amazing how gentle they can be.
He is a precious lil feller 🤗🌞
❤❤❤❤
You can see how happy this momma is. She trusts her mate as he holds this baby, they help each other ❤️ very tuching.
Fabulous ❤️
😊❤
Сколько любви в этих огромных глазах!
Да прямо.
Beautiful and mommy is so sweet
Precious little baby! Amazing how they hang on to their Mama!
GOD BLESS IT AND HER MOM. THANKS GOD FOR THIS BEAUTY. KEEP SAFE SWEETIE
Gorilla's Moms are so caregiven to their babies even 3 old ages. God how marvelous animals you CREATED!! I sing GLORY TO YOU !!
Congratulations 👏🏾🎉
Looking at mom with total adoration on its eyes is so sweet💛
Congratulations to the Zoo! This little cutie is absolutely one Handsome little guy! And his Mom is so careful with him, may they have a wonderful HAPPY life!!
She is a proud mom showing her baby off
Eyes full of wonder , just like human babes. 👍💚👍. I was not aware that they are that small at birth......what did you name him ?
The way he looks at her.....melts my heart ❤️
Priceless!..Such a Blessing 🦍❤️🦍❤️🦍
@Martha Delariva 🤗
Nothing more beautiful than a mother's love!
I was there a few months ago and have my own live pics of it. Its so cute
@SpongeFun Which zoo in the USA are they both at? Ty in advance!

@@patrobles13 Cleveland Metroparks Zoo - Ohio. His name is Kayembe. Sorry this is so late.
thank you for allowing us to see this beautiful astonishment unfold right before her eyes how beautiful thank you God bless
That precious little face. 😭🥰
So precious how baby gorilla is fixated on the mother and gazing up at her beautiful face. You can really see the love that this mama has for her adorable baby!❤ 💕💕
right after this, the mother rejected and abandoned this baby. another female stepped up as a surrogate for the baby.
Awwwwww! Adorable! Am I right?
Totally adorable! ❤🦍
Lovely! Also:«the mother Gorilla is so SWEET, taking care of her baby». 😍💝👍
I think it's so very awesome that this precious baby was born. I love how momma put him on top of her head. So she could walk around. Lots of prayers for more precious babies to be born.
Absolutely precious! Baby Jamela will have a baby friend around her age to play with
NO PUEDEN SER MÁS HERMOSOS, LA MAMÁ Y EL /LA BEBÉ. LOS AMO CON TODA MI VIDA. NO AL MALTRATO NI MATANZA DE ANIMALES. BASTA. .✋✋🐵🐒😙😙😍😍😍❤❤❤❤
Totally agree!!
Little baby is so cute❤! How can you not fall in love with Mom and son connecting like humans.
So tiny and cute. He will grow up to be a big amazing gorilla
Gorilla moms are excellent mothers caring, loving and very protective of their baby … I’m truly in love with All Gorillas mommy’s , daddy’s and siblings they all babysit the baby 💙💙💗💙
just to let you know. this gorilla mother rejected and abandoned this baby. another female stepped up and became a surrogate for him
🇨🇦🙏❤️ My dear God he's absolutely beautiful! Best wishes and prayers from Ontario Canada.

Life can be beautiful sometimes
I love to watch how gentle these large gorillas can be so gentle and instinct let’s them know how t love and treat them ✝️❤️🌺🌈🌸🌼💕✝️✝️❤️❤️❤️❤️💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋🌸🌸❤️❤️
Mom was like, “uh oh, looks like rain”. Puts baby on head.
She wore him like a hat.
I wish more than anything that they would live a life where they belong. But at least they're safe in zoos
Safe & Unhappy VS. Unsafe & Happy
🤔
So which would you choose?
Oh, my! What innocence in that little face. Thanks for sharing.
Temperature is going to begin dropping very soon. I truly hope momma and baby are allowed to stay warm INSIDE their enclosure.
@Ruth
Aren't zoo keepers knowledgeable about these things?
@@dannagraves7131 Zoos are in it for the money. A new infant will attract a lot more visitors and revenue to the park. Unless they have an indoor glass enclosure where visitors could see the baby when it gets cold, they will be forced to go outside for at least a few hours each day. Some zoos provide their animals with heating lamps, hope this one does too.
Omg PLEASE SAY THEY DONT HAVE TO BE OUT IN COLD N RAIN ??? Don’t they have indoor showing rooms like USA AND OTHER CHINA ZOOS N AQUARIUMS ??? I Pray they all have WARM SAFE PLACES TO GO ALL DAY N NIGHT
@@joycerosier9660 The zoo is located in Cleveland, Ohio. Don't know the layout personally, since I've never been there. What I've seen online is a structure that includes both fiberglass and open structure. I also saw a small open cave like opening that wouldn't provide much warmth unless they all huddle up inside. I did by the way see an enclosure for the visitors to remain nice and warm while gawking at the gorillas.
The zoo has received good reviews in the past, and they do have a program that provides healthy meals for the prevention of heart disease. Let's just keep a positive thought for them, as well as our fingers crossed.
@@RuthPreach shit happens. Its called nature.
He or She is Beautiful..The Mother is Super Happy with her little baby.
Es hermoso ❤️ pero muy por debajo de su peso no? Deverian ayudarla un poco no entiendo mucho ...pero es hermoso verlos juntos 😘😘❤️❤️❤️♥️🥰🥰🥰
মা হচ্ছে পৃথিবীর সব থেকে দামী খুব সুন্দর 🙏💞💕💞💕💞💕🙏💞💕

The little smile on his face. Doesn't even know he's been born a captive
Awe such a tiny baby!!! It’s really awesome to see that it’s Mommy get to raise her baby and that she took to her baby so well.
@leahdamron9856 Sorry this is so late. This is not the baby's birth mom. She became his surrogate the day he was born.
There is something so spiritual and mystical about silverback gorillas. I wish I could go there just to see him Is a beautiful little baby.
