    Kyoto City Zoo / Western Lowland Gorilla
    MOMOTARO & GENKI Family ( Momotaro Fam)
    Father MOMOTARO ♂(2000/7/3) 
    He is hesitant in new situations and is a loner.
    His father died before he was born, and he had never spent time with a silverback.
    He had already turned into a silverback by the time he was 10 years old.
    He is struggling with unfamiliar child-rearing.
    MOMOTARO's father is BIJU.
    MOMOTARO's mother is MOMOKO
      
    Mother GENKI ♀ (1986/6/24)   
    She is 14 years older than Momotaro and has a role to support the whole family mentally.
    She has had a tumultuous and eventful life.
    She has returned to her birthplace, Kyoto City Zoo.
    She had never been blessed with a baby but after meeting Momotaro,
    she had two sons.
    She is a very maternal female gorilla.
    GENKI's father is MAC.
    GENKI's mother is HIROMI.
    First son GENTARO, male (2011/12/21)
    He was separated from his mother Genki soon after he was born.
    Genki's milk production was not very good.
    He was raised by his keeper for his first10 months.
    Because of this, he is very fond of humans.
    His face is so expressive, and everyone enjoys watching him.
    Second son KINTARO ♂ (2018/12/19)
    He is just very strong-willed and independent.
    He has big eyes and long eyebrows.
    The way he plays a lot with his brother Gentaro makes everyone smile.
    We can't wait to see what kind of gorilla he'll become!
    Strength of a gorilla .

    Thank you for this story of Genki’s past. It is interesting that gorillas show the same reactions to loneliness, rejection and loss that humans can have: depression, weight loss, bulimia and self-harm. It's such a blessing that Genki now has two fine sons from Momotaro, carrying on Biju’s genes.

    What a sad story. Poor Biju, his life should have been so much longer. How sad for Genki. Really hated to hear how the environment was affecting her. And then feeling sorry for the poor little gorilla who never knew his father. That makes one feel for Momotaro. He was robbed of having a real family. Sad all the way around. I hope Genki is happy now. She has a beautiful family, and is an absolutely amazing mother. Love her so much .. she's a beautiful beautiful creature. I feel privileged being able to learn about her.

    I've always thought Genki was a very kind gorilla. Momoko is a dominant female and a bit of a bully. Momoko is better with her own family minus many females. Toto is very non threatening to Momoko. I think Momoko was jealous of Biju's affection for the pretty, kind Genki. I've always liked Genki more 😉.

      Momotaro a été imposé à genki ,il me semble dans un parc bien fermé, où ils ne pouvaient pas sortir ,Momotaro à voulu compter fleurette à genki ,qui n'était pas très disposée, à se laisser faire par lui ,elle l'a griffé et mordu, et Momotaro est allé taper plusieurs fois sur la porte pour sortir, car genki était mal disposée envers lui ,et se défendait bec et ongles, le reste de cette vidéo 📼, à été coupé et je ne sais pas si ils ont finis par s'entendre à ce moment là, ! J'imagine que genki fut ds l'obligation de céder à Momotaro, puisque ns savons qu'elle lui a fait deux ✌ garçons gentaro et le dernier kintaro,,pour finir mon sentiment, est que genki ne reçoit pas beaucoup de gentillesses de momotaro ,il est jaloux et égoïste ,heureusement il y a kintaro qui est très joueur et qui est toujours près d'elle, ces deux ✌ là s'aiment très forts, ça se voit dans les diverses vidéos que je ne manquerai pas de voir et revoir, enfin merci aux traducteurs, qui me permettent de comprendre les situations dans la vie chaque jour des gorilles 🦍 que j'adore 💕

    Her grief was caused by humans and their decisions. Maybe the story of what human's did to Momoko and Momotaro when he was 2 years old, that was just horrible.

      Hi Nina - Silverback Gon lived at Kyoto until his death in 2009. He and Genki mated but had no offspring. Silverback Kenta lived at Kyoto until 2004, I do not know if he and Genki mated but it seems possible. There was also a female gorilla named Yasuko who lived at Kyoto until May of 2003.
      So even after her mother, Hiromi, died in 2008, Genki was not completely alone.
      Happy New Year and happy gorilla watching in 2024!

      I’d just like to say that it’s difficult to compare a financially strapped zoo like Kyoto with the San Diego zoo, arguably one of the top zoos in the world. The financial resources are incomparable. It is my understanding that the separate space being developed for Gentaro, and possibly Kinny is an attempt to create a “batchelor” situation within the constraints of the zoo. I know there has been consultation with other zoos. As mentioned by others, there are quite limited mating opportunities in Japan… so far. Perhaps more collaboration with European, and even American zoos is something we can all look forward to in future.

Otra vez.Algunas personas dudaban de Momoko.Que no era ,tan pervesa. Ahora,aún se la ve. Tiene mucho carácter aunque se esté haciendo mayor.Con Toto, sin problemas.No ha parido.No le hace la competencia.Y,encima le cuida los niños😂.No es tonta.Ahora ya sabemos,porque no meten a otra gorila con Momotaro.La paz que tienen como familia,se rompería.Ademas Genki ha parido 2 machos.Perpetua la especie.😘

    The way I look at it Genki still has problems,its great she has Kintaro, which makes it better, but Momentaro wasn't attracted to her, just when she was in heat, and ran from her and hit her, she got tired of chasing him, now he is more mature and comes to her rarely and she doesn't want nothing to do with him,he made her that way,she tired of it sometimes and trys to stay out of his way, when he greets her she leaves,she really has never had a love, and still dont, and she hadn't paid attention to Gentaro since he was 7 years old and now he don't want anything to do with her,but at least she has Kintaro.Its sad but the truth,I don't sugar coat, what I don't see,I do think that Momentaro has finally got love for Genki, but doesn't know how to show her, and she doesn't care anymore.
