  • This video shows an updated video of gorilla Sue and her baby girl, Mara, at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium. This is Sue’s first baby. Background: Baby was born June 28th. Mom, Sue was born at the Lincoln Park Zoo on September 27, 2004. She has been at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium since 2014. Dad, Ktembe, was born at the Smithsonian's National Zoo on March 13, 1997. He arrived in Columbus in August of 2017.
    Columbus is also famous for having the first Western Lowland Gorilla born in a zoo in the United States. That gorilla was a female named Colo. She was born in 1956, and lived until 2017. She reached the age of 60 years old, the oldest gorilla in a zoo at that time.
    Larry's Animal Safari now has an On-line Merchandise Store. You can now buy t-shirts, coffee mugs, pillows, and much much more...with your favorite young gorilla's picture on it!
    I've partnered with Greg from Fun Filled Fotos. He has captured some special photos of Jameela, Kunda, and Kayembe.

    -In general, gorillas live 35 years in the wild. In captivity they get better food, medical care and have no predators. Life expectancy can range from 50-60 years.
    GORILLA CONSERVATION - one of the easiest things you can do to help gorillas is to recycle your cell phone or other hand held electronic device. Recycling electronics helps support gorilla conservation programs. Cell phones and other electronics contain a mineral called coltan (it is short for columbite-tantalite). Coltan is mined in areas where gorillas live. Recycling cell phones reduces the demand for coltan, which helps protect these native habitats. Some estimates report gorilla populations have declined 25% in the past 20-25 years.
    The Conservation status of the Western Lowland gorilla is “Critically Endangered”.

    Thanks for the video, Larry! I was at the zoo last weekend…most of the gorillas were in the indoor habitat and were just relaxing or sleeping. Sue was initially in a covered hammock with the baby laying close to her…couldn’t see much because it was a little dark there. She eventually moved around, but as you said, she had her back to the visitors most of the time. We managed a few glimpses of the baby, who is adorable. Hope to see more of her as she gets bigger. 😊😊

    Beautiful video Larry of another new mother who is visibly caring for her beautiful little girl. And what a cutie that 4-year-old Jamina! Seems to me also a very interesting troop with 2 separated silverbacks there each with their own harem. Saw a video a year ago in which both silverbacks alternately hit and kick the intermediate doors, reacting to each other. was a very nice video too

    Magnificent❣️ Mama definitely knew you were watching. 🤨 It’s great that they were only out in the exhibit for a few hours and that the zoo lets them have plenty of private time. Baby looks very healthy and interested in her surroundings in the first part of the video, and then very relaxed sleeping in Mama’s arms. I think she was having tiny milk-drinking dreams. 🥰 Jamani is adorable - eager to play with baby Sis, just like Kayembe❣️Thanks so much for taking us along on your trip to Columbus, Larry - did you see Sully and Kwame as well? 🤩

    Sue looks tired. Baby Sue looked like she was sleeping most of the time. When my daughter and I visited Woodland Park Zoo in 1997, a couple of noisy teenage girls upset the gorilla. The gorilla responded by charging over and pounding on the glass. The girls screamed and left. The gorilla gave us a, "you can stay," look. We were talking quietly.

    • @larrysanimalsafari

      Normal?…, there are many zoos in North America with small numbers in a troop. The gorilla SSP - (Species Survival Plan team) along with the Association of Zoos and Aquariums decide how many gorillas are in each zoo and which gorillas live where based on genetic and social considerations to ensure a healthy/manageable population exists in zoos.
