- Short film of baby Western Lowland Gorilla Afia and her adoptive mother Romina, at Bristol Zoo Gardens 30.3.17. Romina sadly passed in 2018 at the age of 38. She is sadly missed.
Afia was 3 recently and is now cared for by all the females in the group, and by Jock the Silverback. He is a very caring father and very tender with her. She also has a constant playmate in Ayana, who will soon be 2 years old.
Afia (meaning “born on a Friday” in Ghanaian) was born by caesarean section from mum Kera on 12 February 2016. Because Kera was unwell after she had come round from the caesarean, the decision was made to hand-rear Afia and reintroduce her to the group at a later date. Romina took up the mantle as her adoptive mother and cared for her beautifully...
Rest in peace my dear romina,thank you for looking after afia and now you are at peace😍🙇♀️
They’re all so beautiful. I’m heartbroken about Romina. May she, and all animals when they die, R.I.P. I believe all animals go to Heaven when they die so I believe she’s in paradise.
Thank you for that lovely footage and for sharing that very touching backstory. 😢 Aida must miss her surrogate mommy terribly. Glad to hear she has the love and support of her family 🦍 ❤️
Thank you so much..🤗 Sweetest thing ever..
Afia is a beautiful girl, seen video of her with items of clothing which she seems to enjoy. She is so sweet and carefree, would love to see her paired with Lope at Twycross, those two would be great together!
Que pena tão linda amorosa com bebe
The baby is hungry. I think she. Should be with her mom. They are suffering separated. It is a drama.
That is her new mommy..her mother didn't adapt to her or something they claimed so they placed her with her which she loved and cared for her like she was hers..
