Baby Gorilla - Jameela #13 with Freddie

It's a beautiful day and I'm visiting the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo to see Jameela. She is the baby gorilla that came from the Fort Worth Zoo. She is now with her foster mother, Freddie (Fredrika). This video only has baby gorilla Jameela and Freddie- It's Video Jameela/Freddie No. 2 at the end of April.

Cleveland Metroparks Zoo Gorilla Details:
Mokolo - born at Chicago's Lincoln Park Zoo, he came to Cleveland in 1994. At that time, he joined three younger gorillas to make up Cleveland's Bachelor Group. Eventually, we were left with only 2 gorillas, Mokolo & Bebac, then Bebac died in 2017 (from heart disease-not mentioned in the video). Mokolo is now 36 years old. He is the dad of Kayembe and Kunda. Females were brought to Cleveland starting in the Spring of 2017
Fredrika - At 49 years old, she is the oldest adult female in the troop. She is Kayembe's surrogate mom She has raised four babies of her own. She came to Cleveland from Zoo Miami in April of 2017.
Kebi - (Kebi Moyo) she came from The Columbus Zoo & Aquarium in May of 2017. She had her first baby at the age of 8. Kebi's first baby is named Kambera Dupe and she is currently at Zoo Atlanta. Kebi is now 32 years old.
Nneka - born in San Francisco. She came to Cleveland in April 2018. She gave birth to Cleveland's FIRST baby gorilla in 2021 (a male named Kayembe). She is 25 years old. Nneka's first baby was raised by its grandmother because Nneka did not show any proper maternal care then (San Francisco Zoo). Today, Fredrika is raising Nneka’s second baby, Kayembe. Again Nneka, did not show proper maternal care for this baby either.
Tusa - she is the smallest and lowest ranking adult in the troop. She arrived in Cleveland in May of 2019 from the Albuquerque BioPark Zoo in New Mexico. Tusa is 32, but has her 33rd birthday on December 2nd. Tusa was hand reared by humans, and she can get very vocal when upset.
Kayembe - has the honor of being the first baby gorilla born at the Cleveland Zoo. He was born October 26, 2021, and is two years old now. Like most toddlers, he is very active. He plays most often with Fredrika and Nneka. His birth mom is Nneka, dad is Mokolo.
Kunda - is the second baby gorilla born at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. She was born July 19th 2023. Her mom is Kebi and her dad is Mokolo.
Jameela - born via c-section to Sekani in Fort Worth Texas zoo. Sekani is 33 years old and Jameela was her 4th baby. Sekani did not accept Jameela after recovering from her
c-section. A search for a foster mom led her to Cleveland Metroparks Zoo.
Birthdates: Mokolo 7/10/87, Fredrika 6/5/74, Nneka 9/23/98, Kebi 1/13/91/ Tusa 12/2/89, and Kayembe 10/26/21, and Kunda 7/19/23, Jameela 1/5/24.
The Conservation status of the Western Lowland gorilla is “Critically Endangered”.

The photos of both Jameela and Kayembe suckling is adorable, however Kayembe is really nursing but more letting everyone know Freddie’s his momma too. The picture is so precious and I’m so glad the pictures were captured for eternity. I can’t wait for a picture of Kayembe, Kunda and Jameela to be taken of just the three of them sweetesvt. Big brother KeyembeX, sister’s Kunda and Jameela (some say adopted but to the gorilla’s she’s their baby and baby sister and to Freddie she’s nursing her just as she has all 7 of her babies plus as her adopted babies, I dare you to tell Freddie that lKayembe or Jameela aren’t her babies either. Freddie is such a excellent mother an I truly believe she has superior Gorilla 🦍 mothering skills. God Bless All The Precious Gorilla’s 🦍!!!

Absolutely amazing how her body started producing milk to take care of kayembe!

[@pappyone6062]

I would imagine they had to give her medication so she could start lactating when she began caring for Kayembe. But I’d like to know for sure as well.

[@SidestepTheQuestion]

@@pappyone6062 Kayembe was still nursing for comfort more than for food, so Freddie's body was still in a milk producing state. Now that Jameela is requiring more milk, Freddie's body should adjust naturally, although I'm sure there are meds to help. It was really a good situation for Jameela to get into with a mother still nursing.

[@larrysanimalsafari]

@SidestepTheQuestion 👏😁

[@larrysanimalsafari]

@pappyone6062 The Cleveland Metroparks Zoo reported Fredrika began to spontaneously lactate on her own.

[@jaf8771]

This troop reminds me of another gorilla family here on KZbin. Genki, the mother, had two sons.....one a tiny infant....and the other about Kayembe's age. The older brother would taunt the mother and infant....in a playful way. However, one time the older brother grabbed the baby and dragged him by his arm across the yard. Thand God, the infant was not hurt. But I guess this is common when there is a new baby which gets all the attention. I also felt sorry for the older sibling because he just wanted someone to play with. As the baby got older.... the two brothers were inseparable and loved wrestling with each other....so cute.

I wonder if Freddie's milk changed nutritionally from milk for Kayembe to milk for Jameela?

[@Ken-xv4sb]

I doubt it. One of the videos the zoo said she's not producing enough milk to support Jameela only nursing (which at 50 isn't surprising at all).. so that's why her diet is supplemented with formula.

Hmm , I haven’t seen that video.

[@TheVendor1260]

Thanks Larry for these close up videos. Keep up your enthusiasm. I enjoy following Freddie and Jameela. I have a recommendation for the zoo. If possible, they should find a play partner for Kayembe. His rough and tumble games could get rougher, as he should, really. He's a gorrila toddler. Could it be possible to retire Freddie from surrogacy as soon as she's done with Jameela? At 50, she's over the prime and a senior resident. They should possibly be training others. All the best in that endeavour.

I keep seeing the scene from planet of the apes when Charlton sees his shipmates stuffed in a museum. I know they say this is for the species survival. However, I really dislike the patronisation of the animals. They introduce Jameela then take her out. How do they do that? This area seems so restrictive. They must be bored to death.

[@larrysanimalsafari]

I am not patronizing. These animals are intelligent but are not humans. They cannot defend their habitats against humans- they cannot defeat humans. If you drop in for one video on gorillas on this channel and do not read the description - that leads to misunderstanding. I’ll stop here.
