Yes Karin, this video and the way you explained it really shed a lot of light on Momotaro. It is still sad what is going on at the zoo where he is at. As most zoo, they have their problems. But due to space and other issues that’s just their lives. We would wish it all works out for the best, but eventually someone we’ll be hurt.👍👍👍and thank you again.
Id like to thank YOU Karin for sharing the photo's of Momoko and Momotaro. Momotaro was a very mature looking gorilla from the age 3 and up. Gentaro is so small at the age of 10 compared to what Momo was at 10. Again, thank you.
Thank you Ellen for watching the video! Yes, I agree with you. The growth rate of Momotaro was almost twice as fast as that of Gentaro. Gentaro grows very slowly but he is genius. He may be the smartest blackback. 😉
Thank you for sharing Momotaro's pictures. His youngest son, Kintaro, looks so much like his dad at that age. Incredible! Momotaro & Genki are my favourite gorilla family. So nice to see and learn how he became a great dad. I hope his mom Momoko gets better at Ueno Zoo. She just had another newborn brother for Momotaro, so mama Momoko, has to stay around a lot longer.
Thank you Nicole for watching the video. Momotaro & Genki family is my favorite too! Yes. Thank you for caring Momoko. We all pray she will get better soon. The newborn baby is a girl. FYI.😉
@@ZoosForConservation yes! I said in a post where I was describing your channel that Momo looked like Kinny on steroids! Nice to see Momo playing with his ball and with his keepers! It hurt me deeply with Momotaro separation from Momoko. I think if she were reunited with her boy she would know him!
@@ZoosForConservation I also see Gentoro in him . At a certain age . Wonderful video . Momo looked like Gentoro when he was in the tree and on the rocks . 😍♥️🤗
OMG the baby Momotaro reminds me so much of Ringo and Jabali of the D’Jeeco troop. I know they will be handsome and impressive Silverbacks too. Seeing the fierce Momotaro as a young gorilla is awesome!!❤❤
Thank you, Alice, for watching the video about Momotaro's history. He was a gorgeous young gorilla back then and is a very regal, handsome silverback today.😉 Thank you for your comments!
Oh my goodness if that is Momotaro, Gentaro’s & Kintaro’s dad they look just like their dad when he was a baby ♥️. I always wondered about old pictures of Momo. He’s such a handsome Silverback and a wonderful father.
Yes. Momotaro is a very handsome silverback with two beautiful sons. They will probably be beautiful silverbacks just like their dad. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this video. I am such a fan of Momotaro and his family at the Kyoto Zoo. I love to get the history of Momotaro. I also love his Mom and her history. Knowing the gorillas backgrounds helps me understand their personalities. Thanks again.
Momotaro is a great leader & protector. His wife Genki is a lot older than he. She was experienced, patient and helped him. Momotaro had no concept of mating … he had never witnessed it. He also never had exposure to children or infants. He is an excellent father.

O yes! I forgot to thank you! I did end up crying a lot over this and I’m so interested to watch the next installment! Monta is a beautiful Silverback!
He is beautiful, and I feel so very sad that he has no companion. I wonder why, if the female does not want to be with him, they don’t put another one in with him, or another male for company? Rhetorical here… They are social animals. In another video I saw that he can peak at her threw a small grated window, when the mood strikes, and it makes me feels rather angry at the zoo and heartbroken for Monta.
wow. I'm so grateful you shared this about this beautiful animal. This story is fascinating to hear. I have been watching, Momotaro family. Shabani family, Haoko family. Oumbi family and more for last few month and Momotaro family is the most fascinating. you share this back story about Momotaro past is so great of you. I hope Monta can get a younger female to mate with soon and they bring back the programme. Monta is such a beautiful silverback, he deserve better
Thank you for your kind comment. I agree Monta is a very fine silverback. I am a big fan of Momotaro's family. I'm glad to know that you find the video interesting. Thanks for watching!
Finally, some coverage and pictures os Momoko and Momotaro! Thank you so much for this! This just makes me question why Momotaro was separated from Momoko so young...🤔
Thanks for watching! Good question. I wonder why too...🧐 Maybe the zoo thought Momotaro was ready...and in fact he was ready. According to the zoo's articles, Momotaro had been pretty cool throughout the training process, while her mom was upset in the beginning. Do you know any cases around this age to be separated from their moms or surrogate moms?
@@ZoosForConservation that is a very good question .. because we are now facing the simula situation with Gentoro very soon . It would help to know from past expreance what would be best for him . After all you , the zoo and it's facility's can know just by watching the right videos and manual doctrines to determine . That's just my opinion again . . Gentoro is from a different time and different upbringing . We just want the best time , place ,and mate for him . That's is alot to consider . But it's worth it 👍❤️😍✨🌹
It’s hard to know what the zoo thinking. Hopefully it’s not just hurry for the gorillas to produce more babies. You can tell how they pair young male to a much older female.
Thank you to all those that took part in bringing this wonderful video to viewers of the Monotaro family . We all enjoy them soo very much 👍👍👍👏👏👏 May God bless ✝️
Qué lindo Gracias por compartirlo, Momotaro está igualito a su Padre Monta No entendí por qué separaron a Momotaro de su madre Momoka, si no era necesario, fue una crueldad humana.
I was disconnected and sad,at this zoo,it should have been up to momentaro and his, mom,if how much time they spent together and when they wanted to separate,poor mother, crying and he was a kids age,he needed his mother, and being alone,where are the grass and trees, no wander Momentaro,is like he is now, plus putting him with female he doesn't care about, he should have been put with a Harlem, with females,close to his age and let him pick his own girl, Tokyo zooade him aloner, and abad parent,he doesn't know any better.,and because of that his family is suffering,Greski gets no attention from him or love, and she is a lovable female.Genski,had to leave the nest to early and is a nice gorilla,how he is treated by his parents, especially his mom who is good to Kitaro, but abandoned Gentaro around 7or8,,Iguess I will have to look at Genskis upbringing, because she is a good mother, to Kitaro,she Loves him so much,I don't understand why she treats Gentaro the way she does, but be a good mom to Kintaro. Momentaro is angry male because,he lost his mother at a young age and didn't have a father, just so they could breed momentaros mom, for their own selfish reasons.
Yo no sabía que Momontaro era hermano que lindo que me cuenten esas cosas di lis mira tienen mucho parecido yo veo mucho a la familia Momontaro me encanta verlos
Wonderful. Very interesting to watch pictures of the young Momotaro and also how he was at a young age. Kintaro has his fathers looks.. Thanks for sharing it with us. I'm looking forward to watch your next story about the beautiful and handsome Monta. I hope he doesn't stay alone the rest of his life 💕🥰
When I heard Momotaro was separated from his mother at the age of seven, I immediately thought what would have happened if Gentaro would had been separated from Genki at that age? I must confess, It broke my heart!
@@MySkinnydip As I. Three years he was by himself. Not understanding why he was being punished, or why he was abandoned. Thank God he didn't end up like Monta.
Momotaro is the most handsome Silverback Is my personal opinion he deserve to live in a better place. ❤️❤️♥️because he lives here was not good and the new enclosure is not good for Momotaro family.
Thank you Alina for your comment. Yes. Momotaro is one of the most handsome silverbacks, and Komomo is the most beautiful female gorilla to my eyes. I hope Kyoto city zoo can expand their facility in the future for the family to live in a more spacious place.
Hey guys it would be super for video takers that's in charge of making wonderful video diary s would keep up the good work so that we all can see Gentoro and Kentoro when they grow up to be 21 years of age Momo and his son's side by side . 👏👏👏If there is another boy or girl in the future add them too . Also do the same with Ginki a still picture of her and her bueatiful children . You know like a family portrait 🌹💕🌹👍
Never have I been so upset and disgusted at the zoo's over there. These beautiful creatures have feelings just like us. To tear momotaro from his mother all because you wanted a female to breed, was one of the cruelest things I have seen. The most was Genki, she was so distressed she was mauling herself and lost fingers all because humans made selfish decisions. The zoos throw them around like they are nothing. Zoo's should be shut down, they are nothing but peep shows for money
Thank you Lynda for your honest opinion. I can't deny any of what you said. I can't tell you how many times I had the same feeling. 🥲 However, we can gradually see some improvements in zoos here today. I just pray the gorillas alive today will have a happy and long life at least. 🙏
if it was not for the zoo's its far more likely Gorillas would be extinct . as for the breeding they are also doing that for the same reason. Gorillas have been poached to the brink and as it is now its still kinda up in the air. I can tell you with certainty that this is the better of the outcomes right now. hopefully they get to a point where it will no longer be necessary to save the species.
@@captaincoffeecake3595why don't we poach those people who hunted for animals in their natural habitat? They destroyed everything, why do the animals have to pay for their selfishness? We should pouch them and put them inside a gorilla cage. Let gorillas have some fun time too.
Yes, and look at what they got! A silverback who mates every 7 to 8 yrs with an old neurotic female. He is totally inept now. If you watch any of the videos you want yo cry. He doesn’t even know the position anymore. At least, that is what I saw today. Put Genki on Prozac of dome sort and put her with either young gorillas or old females. They only worry about her weight! The viewers that is. Drives me crazy. When they never address the situation with Momo. And, not sure what they are waiting for to move Gentaro.
@@staypeace5955 Hey you wont here me arguing , poachers and sport hunters are very little people with little minds. personally I think the punishment should fit the crime. take a gorilla hand you lose both of yours type of deal.
Soo sad to hear montero back story, he was stolen out of his childhood 😢 now it’s like he really doesn’t know what to do or anything because the way he was done!! Sooo sad😢😢, and poor Moko crying for her son😢😢, wonder how genki will do, sad the other two don’t have mates, what about komo or moko, are they going to have the chance to live with a family?? Gentro and Kintro looked just like dad when he was small. He’s probably got a lot of scars on his mind. ❤😢
Thank you Easter Bunny for watching the video about Momotaro's childhood story. It explains why Momotaro is the way he is today mostly because of how he was raised.🥲 No one knows what kind of plans the relevant parties have for those young gorillas. Japan Association of Zoos and Aquariums isn't functioning well like AZA or EAZA are.🤷🏻♀️
Karin thank you soooo much for this video. My god what a heartbreaking story, and confusing, and yet wonderful to see more of young Momo. How in the world was he thought of as a blackback at seven. Though his arm’s were a silverbacks even when two. Momoko also has huge arms. The training to separate them began when he was just 6. When the door so sadly closed between them for good in Jan 2008, Momo lived with Monta for a year? Was the separation to encourage Momoko to mate? And then, in Dec 2008, Momo and Momoko were reunited and sent back to Ueno. Some reports have had Momo living by himself at Chiba for 2-3 years before coming to Genki in Kyoto City, when he was 10. But by this account he was at Ueno. With just Momoko and Toto? So much sadness for all of them. And lots of sobbing here. Yet I still thank you.
Hi Kate. Thank you for watching the video! I don't think Momotaro and Momoko were reunited in Dec 2008. They were still separated even in Ueno. It's not so clear whether Momotaro lived with Monta before he was transferred to Ueno, but I assume he didn't. The zoo wanted to see if Momoko could pair up with Monta. So, Momotaro was living by himself for 2 years and 10 months before meeting Genki. Gorillas are so relatable to humans. I hope the video didn't make your eyes swollen.🙏 Thank you for your comment!
@@ZoosForConservation I’m hugely grateful for the information you’ve found and are sharing. Tears are just part of the wonder of this family who is so dear to so many of us. While it’s such a joy to learn new pieces of their background. Thank you for your time and the effort to respond.
Wow! Thanks for all the early info and video on Momotaro. Will Gentaro be returning here or do you know what they plan to do with him? I love Gentaro I hope he has a great future ahead of him and I hope I will ne able to see it
I love Gentaro too, and it would be wonderful for me to be able to take a movie of him here at Chiba, but the zoo condition is not so favorable for young gorillas to live and to make a troop at this moment. There is a plan to do a renovation for great apes, but the zoo hasn't announced exactly when. Thank you for your comment!
Oh my goodness! A friend just told me to watch this!my favorite silverback momotaro, 🥰 I thought it was Kintaro for a minute! Were they sent here after the death of his father? Great pictures it’s nice to see him at that age. It’s amazing how young he was when he was sent away considering her oldest daughter should be gone or moving soon. I guess with all of them close to leaving the zoos need to decide where they will go since most of them are related. Thanks for this great stuff 🥰
Thank you Tyeisha for watching my video and I appreciate your comment. Momotaro's childhood is just like Kintaro. You are absolutely right. Most of gorillas in Japan are related unfortunately. I hope each young gorilla can get to have his or her own family in the near future.
@@ZoosForConservation do the gorillas have to stay in China or can they be moved to a different country where they're not related or to the United States where they're not related.
Momo's mom has big baby's that turn into toddler's because there mom has lots of milk for them. Kintaro s mom has little milk that's why kintaro is a lot smaller than Momo was at the same age
Yeah...that may be so. And the kind of food he was given could be one of many factors. But also growth rates vary among individuals. Momotaro was pretty faster to become a silverback compared to others. Thank your for watching!
I read all these lovely comments, did we miss the part where Momotaro was separated from his Mother Momoko and she cried (that's distress),,and why was she separated from her baby Momotaro at only age 5/6 yrs old? Why-did I miss something? Not that any reason would be a good one. This Zoo scares me- bad vibes. Have you seen the videos of Rola? By herself- yes there are reasons,,but you have to work quickly for a resolution to avoid inhumane treatment. Try watching these videos and just replace the gorilla inhabitants with humans. How does it look now?
Hi ChenruiJD. Momotaro was separated from Momoko at the age of 7 (almost 8). The reason was probably the zoo wanted Momoko to mate with Monta or other silverbacks (i.e. Haoko). This zoo has lots of issues to be solved. It has released a plan to renovate gorilla enclosures but it was like several years ago.🙄
Imagine if they took Riki away from Momoko and had him live alone for years. That’s what they did to Momotaro and that’s so sad. I always think that he hoots a lot because he probably did that often when he was alone as a child.
I just can't imagine Riki being alone. He is such a mood maker in the family. Everyone will be confused and lost without him.😢 Thank you, Justbreathe, for reminding us how hard it must have been for Momotaro and Momoko during that period.
Monotaro shouldn't have been taking away from his mother. Also monotaro father is Biju. Get it right people. Also monotaro for 6 years taken from his mother. For God sakes get it right before writing comments.
Mama was bigger as a toddler than kintaro because Momo's mom had milk kintaro mom did not have hardly any milk that's why they took the older boy away she didn't have enough milk and they should have supplemented Mama's milk with formula at a real early age instead of waiting till he was seven or eight months old.
Yeah, The amount of breast milk Kintaro was getting from Genki could be one factor why he is smaller than Momotaro at the same age. Thank you Roxanna for watching the video and I appreciate your comment.
Oh my poor Momotarou, I really sorry for him. He never see his dad and he doesn't spend time with his mom enough. 😢 When he was young he played, naughty likes another baby gorillas but when he's bigger he had to move and lived alone that's poor time took he to be shy and timid, it likes he never talk too much, playful, drummimg again. But nowaday, he such a really good, gentle, handsome Silverback I've ever seen. And of course, he did very very good works what he had to do on his shoulders. I'm really glad to knew Momotarou and his family. 🦍
Thank you Pingping for watching the video and for your thoughtful comment. Yes. Momotaro is a great and cool dad. He has learned a lot from Genki and through living with his boys. 😊
I really enjoyed this video. Thank you for sharing! Jes have 1 question…n I apologize bc my eyes aren’t the best & I may have missed it…but who is momotaro’s daddy? I thought I seen where Monta is? But I always thght momo’s daddy died before momo was born. N That’s why he got moved & some think some of momo’s aggressive behavior is bc he didn’t have a silverback to look to!? Again, I could’ve missed something in this video. I really enjoyed seeing the pics thgh. Thank u!! 🦍🦍❤️❤️
Hello Todd. Thank you for watching the video. Momotaro's father is Biju. Biju came from Howletts Animal Park in UK and had a baby with Momoko at Ueno zoo. Unfortunately he passed away before Momoko gave birth to Momotaro. Biju never came to Chiba Zoo where Monta lives now. I guess my video editing was a little confusing. Momotaro's short temper could be something to do with how he was raised, but it could also be his personality.
I don't know why they haven't tried to pair Monta with Komomo. He isn't related to Haoko is he? I know he isn't related to Momoko since they tried mating them.
If I'm not wrong, the rumor of Monta could be related to Momoko has emerged recently. At the time of the zoo trying to pair up Momoko with Monta, they might not have an idea that there could be such possibility. I've asked the zoo director about this matter and haven't got a reply yet. Thank you Mac for your comment.😊🙏
Hearbreaking that Momotaro was separated from his mom so young, and why? Is Monta Momotaro's uncle, Momo resembles him. Baby Momo looks just like Kintaro, although genius Gentaro might be my favorite.
I don't know why. They haven't mentioned the reason why they started training very early. I guess it has more to do with Momoko. If a mother is separated from her child, she may become more active in finding a partner. Monta could be related to Momotaro. It's not confirmed. The trading company which had imported Momoko and Monta was told that they were not related, but that might be a false. Genius sweetheart Gentaro is my favorite too! Thanks for watching!
Si des pays riches comme le Japon ont du mal à encadrer correctement les gorilles, qu'on les ramène en Afrique où ils sont plus proches de leur environnement. Là-bas les infrastructures seront moins chères et la main d'œuvre qualifiée et plus adaptée. Il suffira seulement de créer un fonds de financement pour la protection des gorilles.
Je souffre souvent de voir comment Néné fille de mon pays le Cameroun est isolée et parfois malmenée par Shabani, alors qu'en Afrique elle serait peut-être avec d'autres de son âge.
@@fajarmustofa8020 Rola (Laura) is not able to live amongst her own kind, Monta has cried for her companionship and also checks on her by going to the gate. It is a sad situation.
These Japanese Zoos are very cruel. Taking a young Gorilla way which is not even six years old, though the Mother really suffers, left me speechless. They only see the females as breeders. And Ueno is as brutal; forcing Genki to endure the insane Gentaro since three years. But hey, she is only a female. Who cares how she suffers? No good sign, when a country mistreats animals.
On aimerait aussi une version de l'histoire en français, nous en France aimons également ces gorilles et surtout l'histoire touchante de Momoko et Momotaro. Merci
Wow! Thanks for all the early info and video on Momotaro. Will Gentaro be returning here or do you know what they plan to do with him? I love Gentaro I hope he has a great future ahead of him and I hope I will ne able to see it
I LOVE Gentrao too. He is such a sweetheart. I'm not sure about Gentaro's future. No info is out there. Wherever he goes next, I'm sure there must be lots and lots of fans to go after him to take videos. And since he has so many fans like myself, no zoos can treat him badly. So no worries.😁 Thank you for your comment!

@@ZoosForConservation that is a very good question .. because we are now facing the simula situation with Gentoro very soon . It would help to know from past expreance what would be best for him . After all you , the zoo and it's facility's can know just by watching the right videos and manual doctrines to determine . That's just my opinion again . . Gentoro is from a different time and different upbringing . We just want the best time , place ,and mate for him . That's is alot to consider . But it's worth it 👍❤️😍✨🌹
@@ZoosForConservation ANNIE 🤗😍♥️✨❤️ . Not the same age group . But similar , and GENTORO .
It’s hard to know what the zoo thinking. Hopefully it’s not just hurry for the gorillas to produce more babies. You can tell how they pair young male to a much older female.
Omg Momotaro wonderful Gorilla.🥰😄

Qué lindo Gracias por compartirlo, Momotaro está igualito a su Padre Monta No entendí por qué separaron a Momotaro de su madre Momoka, si no era necesario, fue una crueldad humana.
momotaro es hijo de biju.
Monta is possibly his uncle. Momoko and Monta came together to a zoo in Spain from the wild. I see the resemblance between the 3
I was disconnected and sad,at this zoo,it should have been up to momentaro and his, mom,if how much time they spent together and when they wanted to separate,poor mother, crying and he was a kids age,he needed his mother, and being alone,where are the grass and trees, no wander Momentaro,is like he is now, plus putting him with female he doesn't care about, he should have been put with a Harlem, with females,close to his age and let him pick his own girl, Tokyo zooade him aloner, and abad parent,he doesn't know any better.,and because of that his family is suffering,Greski gets no attention from him or love, and she is a lovable female.Genski,had to leave the nest to early and is a nice gorilla,how he is treated by his parents, especially his mom who is good to Kitaro, but abandoned Gentaro around 7or8,,Iguess I will have to look at Genskis upbringing, because she is a good mother, to Kitaro,she Loves him so much,I don't understand why she treats Gentaro the way she does, but be a good mom to Kintaro.
Momentaro is angry male because,he lost his mother at a young age and didn't have a father, just so they could breed momentaros mom, for their own selfish reasons.
Monta needs a companion, he is very lonely. Poor boy.😢😢😢
Yes, indeed. Thank you for your comment.

When I heard Momotaro was separated from his mother at the age of seven, I immediately thought what would have happened if Gentaro would had been separated from Genki at that age? I must confess, It broke my heart!

はじめまして😊
京都のモモタロウが大好きで彼のゴリラlifeを検索していたところここに辿り着きました。
本や記事の情報からモモタロウの歩みは知っていたのですが、まさか6歳からモモコと分離の練習をして7歳で完全分離していたとは…初耳でした。（8歳まではモモコと暮らしていたとばかり🥺）まだまだ母親に甘えたかった年齢…将来のためとは言え、寂しかっただろうなと涙が出ました😭
今のモモタロウが寂しがり屋なのも改めて納得です。
そして、いつでも堂々としていて動じないモモコが分離練習当初は鳴いていたとは😢
モモタロウはモンタのことが好きだったと何かの本で読みましたが、少しの時間、同じ放飼場で行動を共にしたことがあったのでしょうか？
見たことのないモモタロウ幼少期の写真もあって、見応えある動画でした🙏🏻
ありがとうございます🙇🏻♀😊
長文失礼しました🙏🏻
敏久さん、お時間をかけて感想をコメントで残してくださりありがとうございます⭐️
モモタロウとモモコの分離を園側が大人の事情で急いだ間は否めないですね。
上野にモモコをBLで行かせる前に、モンタと繁殖が成功しないか千葉側が最後のトライを急いだ感があります。7歳半くらいで完全に単独飼育になるなんてちょっとかわいそすぎますよね。モモタロウが群れ育ちのシルバーバックとは風変わりな行動をするのも、モモタロウが置かれた幼少期の環境が大きく影響していると思います。モモコにおいても自然界や欧米の動物園ではゴリラは群れの中で子育てをしてみんなで育てていく環境とはうってかわり、子供とふたりっきりで子育てをしてきたので、モモタロウが精神的なよりどころになっていたんだと思います。私も返信を打ちながら泣けてきました。ゴリラは涙を誘います😭
モモタロウとモンタの関係なのですが、動物園の資料には二人が同居したという記録はないのです。格子を介して交流があったことは記録にあります。格子越しによくモモタロウがモンタにちょっかいを出していたようです。木に登って隣のモンタを覗いたりしていたそうです😄 モモタロウの分離トレーニングの際の記録では、モンタ側の放飼場とモモコ親子側の放飼場の扉を開放して行き来を自由にしたとありますが、モンタ側の放飼場にモンタがいたかどうかは記載がありません。モンタは室内に待機していた可能性が高いです。もし同居していたらその様子の記載があってもおかしくないので。このときモンタとモモタロウを同居させてくれていたら、モンタのバチェラーグループで暮らす訓練になったのに、と惜しく感じます。とにかく記録が少ないので、誰かその当時来園してモンタとモモタロウが一緒にいるところを目撃された方がいらっしゃったらコメントでご指摘いただけるとうれしいです。だいぶ先になってしまいますが、機会をみて飼育員さんに二人が同居したことがあったか伺ってみますね。ただ当時のことを知らない可能性は高いです😥なので記録は大事だなと実感します（記録方法も）。
ご視聴ありがとうございました🙏

心のこもった返信有難うございます。
感動しました🥹
京都の飼育員さんも「幼い頃のモモタロウに良い社会環境を整えてあげられなかったこと」が、モモタロウの不器用さの大きな原因と語っておられました。私はモモタロウのこの不器用さこそが魅力だと感じていて、不器用なりに一生懸命シルバーバックとしての役割を果たそうとする姿は、彼の生い立ちを知れば知るほど愛おしさが募ります🥹
モンタとモモタロウのこと、詳細に有難うございます🙏🏻
柵越しの生活、karinさんの言葉で楽しそうな幼少期のモモタロウを容易に想像することができます😊
大人の事情でゴリラたちの一生が左右されてしまうのは切なくて切なくて仕方ないです🥺

O Good! Look at Momotaro sweet cotton tail!
I am not sure, when I see these pictures I wanna bet it is Kintaro, not his Daddy!
Momo at 5 years old was as big as gentaro is now at 10yrs old.
Momotaro was very muscular since he was a baby.😄 Thank you Roxanna for watching.
Momotaro is the most handsome Silverback Is my personal opinion he deserve to live in a better place. ❤️❤️♥️because he lives here was not good and the new enclosure is not good for Momotaro family.
Thank you Alina for your comment. Yes. Momotaro is one of the most handsome silverbacks, and Komomo is the most beautiful female gorilla to my eyes. I hope Kyoto city zoo can expand their facility in the future for the family to live in a more spacious place.
Hey guys it would be super for video takers that's in charge of making wonderful video diary s would keep up the good work so that we all can see Gentoro and Kentoro when they grow up to be 21 years of age Momo and his son's side by side . 👏👏👏If there is another boy or girl in the future add them too . Also do the same with Ginki a still picture of her and her bueatiful children . You know like a family portrait 🌹💕🌹👍
He looks like he is wearing a toupe💕💕
😆❤️
So Momotaro basically cloned himself and gave us Kintaro, The resemblance is unreal.
That exactly what happened. 😂 Thank you for your comment!😊
Never have I been so upset and disgusted at the zoo's over there. These beautiful creatures have feelings just like us. To tear momotaro from his mother all because you wanted a female to breed, was one of the cruelest things I have seen. The most was Genki, she was so distressed she was mauling herself and lost fingers all because humans made selfish decisions. The zoos throw them around like they are nothing. Zoo's should be shut down, they are nothing but peep shows for money
Thank you Lynda for your honest opinion. I can't deny any of what you said. I can't tell you how many times I had the same feeling. 🥲 However, we can gradually see some improvements in zoos here today. I just pray the gorillas alive today will have a happy and long life at least. 🙏
if it was not for the zoo's its far more likely Gorillas would be extinct . as for the breeding they are also doing that for the same reason. Gorillas have been poached to the brink and as it is now its still kinda up in the air. I can tell you with certainty that this is the better of the outcomes right now. hopefully they get to a point where it will no longer be necessary to save the species.
@@captaincoffeecake3595why don't we poach those people who hunted for animals in their natural habitat? They destroyed everything, why do the animals have to pay for their selfishness? We should pouch them and put them inside a gorilla cage. Let gorillas have some fun time too.
Yes, and look at what they got! A silverback who mates every 7 to 8 yrs with an old neurotic female. He is totally inept now. If you watch any of the videos you want yo cry. He doesn’t even know the position anymore. At least, that is what I saw today. Put Genki on Prozac of dome sort and put her with either young gorillas or old females. They only worry about her weight! The viewers that is. Drives me crazy. When they never address the situation with Momo. And, not sure what they are waiting for to move Gentaro.
@@staypeace5955 Hey you wont here me arguing , poachers and sport hunters are very little people with little minds. personally I think the punishment should fit the crime. take a gorilla hand you lose both of yours type of deal.
Soo sad to hear montero back story, he was stolen out of his childhood 😢 now it’s like he really doesn’t know what to do or anything because the way he was done!! Sooo sad😢😢, and poor Moko crying for her son😢😢, wonder how genki will do, sad the other two don’t have mates, what about komo or moko, are they going to have the chance to live with a family?? Gentro and Kintro looked just like dad when he was small. He’s probably got a lot of scars on his mind. ❤😢
Thank you Easter Bunny for watching the video about Momotaro's childhood story. It explains why Momotaro is the way he is today mostly because of how he was raised.🥲 No one knows what kind of plans the relevant parties have for those young gorillas. Japan Association of Zoos and Aquariums isn't functioning well like AZA or EAZA are.🤷🏻♀️
Karin thank you soooo much for this video. My god what a heartbreaking story, and confusing, and yet wonderful to see more of young Momo. How in the world was he thought of as a blackback at seven. Though his arm’s were a silverbacks even when two. Momoko also has huge arms. The training to separate them began when he was just 6. When the door so sadly closed between them for good in Jan 2008, Momo lived with Monta for a year? Was the separation to encourage Momoko to mate? And then, in Dec 2008, Momo and Momoko were reunited and sent back to Ueno. Some reports have had Momo living by himself at Chiba for 2-3 years before coming to Genki in Kyoto City, when he was 10. But by this account he was at Ueno. With just Momoko and Toto? So much sadness for all of them. And lots of sobbing here. Yet I still thank you.
Hi Kate. Thank you for watching the video! I don't think Momotaro and Momoko were reunited in Dec 2008. They were still separated even in Ueno. It's not so clear whether Momotaro lived with Monta before he was transferred to Ueno, but I assume he didn't. The zoo wanted to see if Momoko could pair up with Monta. So, Momotaro was living by himself for 2 years and 10 months before meeting Genki. Gorillas are so relatable to humans. I hope the video didn't make your eyes swollen.🙏 Thank you for your comment!
@@ZoosForConservation I’m hugely grateful for the information you’ve found and are sharing. Tears are just part of the wonder of this family who is so dear to so many of us. While it’s such a joy to learn new pieces of their background. Thank you for your time and the effort to respond.

I love Gentaro too, and it would be wonderful for me to be able to take a movie of him here at Chiba, but the zoo condition is not so favorable for young gorillas to live and to make a troop at this moment. There is a plan to do a renovation for great apes, but the zoo hasn't announced exactly when. Thank you for your comment!
Eu AMO MOMOTARO 🥰😘🙏
Oh my goodness! A friend just told me to watch this!my favorite silverback momotaro, 🥰 I thought it was Kintaro for a minute! Were they sent here after the death of his father? Great pictures it’s nice to see him at that age. It’s amazing how young he was when he was sent away considering her oldest daughter should be gone or moving soon. I guess with all of them close to leaving the zoos need to decide where they will go since most of them are related. Thanks for this great stuff 🥰
Thank you Tyeisha for watching my video and I appreciate your comment. Momotaro's childhood is just like Kintaro. You are absolutely right. Most of gorillas in Japan are related unfortunately. I hope each young gorilla can get to have his or her own family in the near future.
@@ZoosForConservation do the gorillas have to stay in China or can they be moved to a different country where they're not related or to the United States where they're not related.

Momo's mom has big baby's that turn into toddler's because there mom has lots of milk for them. Kintaro s mom has little milk that's why kintaro is a lot smaller than Momo was at the same age
Yeah...that may be so. And the kind of food he was given could be one of many factors. But also growth rates vary among individuals. Momotaro was pretty faster to become a silverback compared to others. Thank your for watching!
I read all these lovely comments, did we miss the part where Momotaro was separated from his Mother Momoko and she cried (that's distress),,and why was she separated from her baby Momotaro at only age 5/6 yrs old? Why-did I miss something? Not that any reason would be a good one. This Zoo scares me- bad vibes. Have you seen the videos of Rola? By herself- yes there are reasons,,but you have to work quickly for a resolution to avoid inhumane treatment. Try watching these videos and just replace the gorilla inhabitants with humans. How does it look now?
Hi ChenruiJD. Momotaro was separated from Momoko at the age of 7 (almost 8). The reason was probably the zoo wanted Momoko to mate with Monta or other silverbacks (i.e. Haoko). This zoo has lots of issues to be solved. It has released a plan to renovate gorilla enclosures but it was like several years ago.🙄
Momotarinho sempre foi LINDÃO...Amo tanto 🥰😘... É triste na hora de separar os filhos dos pais levando pra outro zoológico..😥😥..

Imagine if they took Riki away from Momoko and had him live alone for years. That’s what they did to Momotaro and that’s so sad. I always think that he hoots a lot because he probably did that often when he was alone as a child.
I just can't imagine Riki being alone. He is such a mood maker in the family. Everyone will be confused and lost without him.😢 Thank you, Justbreathe, for reminding us how hard it must have been for Momotaro and Momoko during that period.
Monotaro shouldn't have been taking away from his mother. Also monotaro father is Biju. Get it right people. Also monotaro for 6 years taken from his mother. For God sakes get it right before writing comments.
Thank you, Kelly, for watching.🙂
Mama was bigger as a toddler than kintaro because Momo's mom had milk kintaro mom did not have hardly any milk that's why they took the older boy away she didn't have enough milk and they should have supplemented Mama's milk with formula at a real early age instead of waiting till he was seven or eight months old.
Yeah, The amount of breast milk Kintaro was getting from Genki could be one factor why he is smaller than Momotaro at the same age. Thank you Roxanna for watching the video and I appreciate your comment.
@@ZoosForConservation I enjoy watching I've watched since that little guy was first born.
These creatures are too intelligent to play 90 day fiance! Momotaro was still too young at 7 to be sepeated from his mother. Not right.
Oh my poor Momotarou, I really sorry for him. He never see his dad and he doesn't spend time with his mom enough. 😢
When he was young he played, naughty likes another baby gorillas but when he's bigger he had to move and lived alone that's poor time took he to be shy and timid, it likes he never talk too much, playful, drummimg again.
But nowaday, he such a really good, gentle, handsome Silverback I've ever seen. And of course, he did very very good works what he had to do on his shoulders. I'm really glad to knew Momotarou and his family. 🦍

I really enjoyed this video. Thank you for sharing! Jes have 1 question…n I apologize bc my eyes aren’t the best & I may have missed it…but who is momotaro’s daddy? I thought I seen where Monta is? But I always thght momo’s daddy died before momo was born. N That’s why he got moved & some think some of momo’s aggressive behavior is bc he didn’t have a silverback to look to!? Again, I could’ve missed something in this video. I really enjoyed seeing the pics thgh. Thank u!! 🦍🦍❤️❤️
Hello Todd. Thank you for watching the video. Momotaro's father is Biju. Biju came from Howletts Animal Park in UK and had a baby with Momoko at Ueno zoo. Unfortunately he passed away before Momoko gave birth to Momotaro. Biju never came to Chiba Zoo where Monta lives now. I guess my video editing was a little confusing. Momotaro's short temper could be something to do with how he was raised, but it could also be his personality.
@@ZoosForConservation ok got it now. Thank u!
I don't know why they haven't tried to pair Monta with Komomo. He isn't related to Haoko is he? I know he isn't related to Momoko since they tried mating them.
If I'm not wrong, the rumor of Monta could be related to Momoko has emerged recently. At the time of the zoo trying to pair up Momoko with Monta, they might not have an idea that there could be such possibility. I've asked the zoo director about this matter and haven't got a reply yet. Thank you Mac for your comment.😊🙏
Hearbreaking that Momotaro was separated from his mom so young, and why? Is Monta Momotaro's uncle, Momo resembles him. Baby Momo looks just like Kintaro, although genius Gentaro might be my favorite.
I don't know why. They haven't mentioned the reason why they started training very early. I guess it has more to do with Momoko. If a mother is separated from her child, she may become more active in finding a partner. Monta could be related to Momotaro. It's not confirmed. The trading company which had imported Momoko and Monta was told that they were not related, but that might be a false. Genius sweetheart Gentaro is my favorite too! Thanks for watching!

ゲン＆アニーが上手く行くと仮定してですが、以前にゴリラ飼育経験がある動物園や、広くて快適な場所を確保できる動物園もあると思うのに、自分達のところで引き受けようと手を挙げる動物園はないものか…そして国はゴリラのための支援をもっとするべきです。
上野のように(他の動物目当ての集客であっても)、金銭的に恵まれている動物園ばかりでないのは承知していますが、何とかしなければ本当に絶えてしまうと恐れています。

Si des pays riches comme le Japon ont du mal à encadrer correctement les gorilles, qu'on les ramène en Afrique où ils sont plus proches de leur environnement. Là-bas les infrastructures seront moins chères et la main d'œuvre qualifiée et plus adaptée. Il suffira seulement de créer un fonds de financement pour la protection des gorilles.
Je souffre souvent de voir comment Néné fille de mon pays le Cameroun est isolée et parfois malmenée par Shabani, alors qu'en Afrique elle serait peut-être avec d'autres de son âge.

Rola (Laura) is not able to live amongst her own kind, Monta has cried for her companionship and also checks on her by going to the gate.
It is a sad situation.

These Japanese Zoos are very cruel.
Taking a young Gorilla way which is not even six years old, though the Mother really suffers, left me speechless. They only see the females as breeders.
And Ueno is as brutal; forcing Genki to endure the insane Gentaro since three years. But hey, she is only a female. Who cares how she suffers?
