Kijivu’s healthy baby gorilla looks out on the world

The proud mother, Western Lowland Gorilla Kijivu, can be seen cradling her wide-eyed arrival, now three weeks old. The miracle of birth was a welcome relief for the primate, having lost her last offspring in a freak accident earlier in 2012.

According to Prague Zoo staff, the delivery of the hairy newborn went smoothly and without problems. The tiny infant is Kijivu’s fourth child with her male partner, Richard, joining three fellow siblings at the Zoo.
