  • Thandie (born 26-11-2018) is starting to eat with the rest of the group. Her mum knows she is t he highest in rank and collects all the food. Thandie learns from the best, some food in every hand! Sometimes mum and dad only take it from her, that's not sad. She gets enough. She still drinks with mum and will continue doing that for a long time. Her white piece of hair on her bum gives her the privilege to try to steal some food even from dad. When her white piece of hair disappears (around 4 years old) she'll have to follow the rules like every other group member. I loved watching her chew on the carrots! And when I came home I saw why she was having an itch. The flies were bothering her, still very cute to watch. Hope you'll enjoy it!

    Best part of being a gorilla is that they don't have to stand on a supermarket line for food.
    Thandie is too cute for words. 😍

    Love to watch this little girl have veggies to eat. This is very healthy for her watching her chew on that carrot is so precious. She is cute and would be a great playmate for Kintaro, they would have so much fun together.

    Thank you for sharing Thandie, she is beautiful. Her grandmother Ozala is at the Tywcross zoo, Thandie has two uncles there, Lope and Shufia. Thandie father is amazing. Looking to the future the Lope n Shufia will be as handsome as their brother. Everyone should check out Tywcross zoo gorillas. Have a great day.

      I've seen positive videos lately of Kintaro. He is finally walking around and playing by himself. The first years he'll get breastmilk and every veggie he may taste is just a treat ;). Don't worry, people thought he would never walk by himself, but it worked out well and sooner than most people thought. Every mum has it's own way and every gorilla group is different and every gorilla baby develops in it's own time ;).

      @@juttamussong-loffler9292 it's hard to give my opinion on their living conditions. The videos I've seen were okay. The Gorilla's seemed to be doing well. Hair looked good and their bodies as well. But I can't see how big the in- and oudside enclosures are. I did hear a lot about Kintaro. A few of my followers mentioned him in the comments of my video. I've read his mum is very protective and still won't put him down to crawl or walk. But I also read she has a bad history with putting her children down. So it is kind a logical she is that much protective. I just hope it needs time and Kintaro will eventually be able to crawl and walk. But untill then, people need to be patient I think. The little fella seems to be doing well. He moves and grabs on things he can reach from his mums arms. The Gorilla's I've seen in the videos, look healthy luckily. But I've never been there so I can not say much about the situation. Hope it answers your question though.

      @@LiekesShotOfLife The zoo's staff showed a video about Genki. There it is said that Kintaro is her second child. Her first is Gentaro (8years) living together with his mother, father (Momontaro) and his younger brother, Kintaro. Gentaro seems to love this little gorilla quite a lot whereas Genki is really mean. She always ran away, boxed and hit him and once she spit water into his face because she didn't like that he came to close. This elder son was hand-raised because Genki had too less milk and he was dehydrated. It seems on the one hand she is very protective on the other hand she refuses her older son extremely. Therefore it is a wonder that Gentaro reacts not more aggressive. In their area is noone who can play with him. He is refused by his mother, he cannot even touch his brother and the only one he has physically contact is his huge father. Momontaro sometimes tries to fight with him, but when he is tired he runs away. Comparing your films to other zoos there is much difference in providing shelter (often with great amount of straw for laying) and food (different vegetables or fruit, combined with fŕozen ice). If you watch Genki's fur you can see small injuries, bloody, and looking dull. Thank you so much for answering. It helps me with judging the situation. I am a little worried because gorillas are wonderful, clever and nearly similar in their behaviour to us. Closing them in a zoo means a kind of prisoning. They are worth giving them all the best and not the least. Thank you!!!

      @LiekesShotOfLife  Před 4 lety

      ​@@juttamussong-loffler9292 Thanks for your extensive reaction. I can see it's a complicated situation. Certainly for Genki and Gentaro. How old is Genki? Is he in puberty? In Artis we've got three boys in puberty and it also was and is a reason why mom was really careful with putting damsi down in the first bit. Sometimes one of the boys (in puberty) kidnaps Damsi and Dafina (mom) will run after them and get Damsi back. The advantage for these boys is that they have each other to play rough with and pick on each other. Though they also had quite some time of problems in Artis with yanga (2 year old girl), who was being introduced into the family. The puber boys where a bit too rough in playing with her and it scared her for a long time. But now it's all fine. Yanga lives with the rest of the group and plays a lot with Damsi and Yanga. Sad to read the zoo doesn't give the gorilla's much shelter and food. And I get your worries, gorilla's are indeed such wonderful, clever creatures. The ones in zoos will not have a good live in the wild but the ones in the wild should stay there. They are certainly worth giving all the best!
