[@leannw7731]

I have enjoyed watching and observing certain animals behavior since i can remember so i really appreciate the un edited videos.Thank you for sharing

[@lynnmiller6547]

Cindy, your videos are awesome! I love watching the babies especially. Thank you for providing these to the public so we all can enjoy!

[@melindaadams7810]

This is a very good video.wasnt bounching all around with the camera.Love to watch gorillas of any age but the babies are just adorable.It also amazes me how the moms are with their babies no matter the age thank you for the wonderful video.

[@rna7nicole753]

What a good Mother. She protects the 'little runt' of the two the most. I guess she figures the biggest one can handle itself. #so cute #awesomemom

[@sharonanz5522]

another video we all enjoy. Thank you Ms Cindy. Madiba is such a sweet one. but they all are to me...lol... God Bless.

[@julieherring2522]

Three little toddlers so beautiful mums feeding their faces as usual lol a real social activity’s group ,they are so beautiful at this age

[@donnajean3026]

Oh Cindy this is a wonderful video!!! Soon Makoua will let Madiba play with the "big" kids, he's growing so fast. And the twins are just too cute with their small size due in part to being preemies. Can't wait to see Nutka and N'Aika's little girl playing with these three. Thank you for this wonderful video Cindy!!

[@roxannenelson8427]

Madiba and the twins look great! Thanks for the update.

[@GorillaFanNL]

You're welcome.

[@mariek7748]

How adorable seeing all three of them! Even though they are about the same size, I guess Mom didn't think Madiba was big or old enough to play! Shouldn't be too much longer when we see 3 furry balls rolling around together. Can' wait!

[@GorillaFanNL]

Strange isn't it that Madiba is almost as big as the twin? He is 4 months younger! And even better, there's a chance that not 3 furry balls will be rolling around together in a couple months, but even 5 LOL Can't wait for that to happen when they're around 1 to 1.5 years old.

[@RedWhimsy]

Cindy T. Despite the twins being small, they seem sharp and very active. Do you know if there is any concern about their weight/development? I don't think I've seen anything online about it.

[@sharkattack3524]

I wonder why she pulls her baby back everytime it gets too close to the other babies. Its neat to see how mothers do things a little differently, the one lets her babies rome free and other wont let the baby leave its side. I like these vids that are not edited and have loud goofy music blaireing in the background. Well done

[@gorillafan100]

Oh Cindy, thank you, thank you, for this awesome video. I am so glad to see Madiba walking and trying to play. He is so cute that little face of his. He is the cutest I have seen so far. Again can't thank you enough for uploading video's for us all.

[@GorillaFanNL]

You're welcome! Madiba is indeed very very cute, but the other babies too LOL

[@oceanicmermaid]

all four babies shared the same father.... wow what a harem!

[@bronzerat012]

Just like toddler kindergarten. So lovely to watch.

[@ebony1473]

Cindy thanks for sharing I look forward to your videos. Can you get some videos go n'gayla and twins? I guess she does not carry them much now

[@julieherring2522]

Mardiba brings baby back and she’s gone just as fast lol

[@tohracervantes8910]

LOVE THIS BABY (from México)

[@lonnieabrams2528]

So cute! Looks like Madiba and one of the twins were kissing.

[@GorillaFanNL]

Sure looks like that :-) Was so sweet to see.

[@sallysassa]

Cindy if you get time to answer, what type of tree or bush are the twigs she's eating, please? I love these vids.

[@GorillaFanNL]

+sally-ann Williams Sorry, but I don't know. They get various types, but I can't say which are which ;)

[@moniquejohnson6465]

3 😍😍😍😍😘so cute

[@claudiaweiss6451]

Hi Cindy, wonder why mom wont let this twin play? Love ur videos

[@GorillaFanNL]

The twins were allowed to play. Little Madiba wasn't (he's not one of the twins). Being mom's first offspring, she was very careful. Now we're over 2 years later and he played and plays a lot since many years.

[@annecorey607]

Twins is very cute growing up they very sweet and mummy as well Bless them all good video thank you .

[@annettenetta9150]

You’re an excellent videographer

[@mpupintoane7090]

❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ebony1473]

mom was not having that..but she should have let the little one play with the other babies. Wonder what the problem was?

[@Silkendrum]

He's not yet as steady on his feet as the twins - he'd be easily bowled over and unable to "stand up for himself", literally..

[@SueLall1008]

Why are they eating dried bark and not given better food?

[@GorillaFanNL]

They eat the foofd, so you don't see that. If you watch all my videos, you'll see that they get plenty of vegetables. Many kilos per day.

[@Silkendrum]

They're not eating just dried bark. They relish the cambium layer under the bark. Their cousins eat it in the wild.

[@elikinder1506]

Lol lol cute

[@moniquejohnson6465]

why they can't play together?

[@GorillaFanNL]

They often did (and do).

[@jacobhogan8598]

yo mums! What's up?

[@clynrow4031]

Is bothering me so bad because why won't she let the baby play with the twins?

[@johnechterhoff4791]

I would love to pick up the twins and hold them. Momma would drop-kick my butt over the fence! LOL!

[@GorillaFanNL]

John Echterhoff When you'd do that close to mom, she would come to take them back after a while I think ;-)

[@barbaracook7574]

I think mam is concerned the twins may be to ruff with her baby

[@isabelolazabal1947]

Momma is being racist with the twins.

[@lindapelle8738]

The baby cries every time mommy pulls him away, he was so wants to play with the other children. She says you’re precious cargo and you are mine so the answer is nope

[@pollyannaprinciple5860]

I wonder why Momma doesn't want Madiba to play with the twins? Maybe she doesn't like the twins' Momma for some reason. Madiba is a cutey, but the twins are so adorable too. Maybe when Madiba gets older Momma will let her play with the twins or even date one of them.

[@GorillaFanNL]

+Pollyanna Principle Madiba was too young to play with his siblings. By the way: this video is from 10 March 2014. There are already plenty videos online from Madiba plaing with the twins and the other two toddlers (all family from him by the way).

[@TheSpriceangel]

+Pollyanna Principle Wow.....I will use this example to teach my students the meaning of true "anthropomorphic" speech.

[@nampaasitaa5092]

Madiba means "Father"

[@paulaterrell7439]

That's a mean mom... all he wants to do is play

[@ТатьянаОбухова-х6ш]

В какой-то голодной стране гориллы с малышами. Кто-нибудь в курсе, что все голодные?

[@clynrow4031]

I absolutely hate the way she keep grabbing the baby it's like she keep grabbing him & throwing down or like you know Tulsa to the side or something I don't get it I don't understand what's going on with her.

[@Anthony-zt1zs]

Is it really that complicated for a human to understand? It's mother's instinct to protect a very young baby from even a remote possibility of harm from play. The baby can play, but not out of mom's reach. There'll be time for rough housing later, but you wouldn't take a chance if it were your infant. Also, they are not as delicate as human babies, so grabbing them to toss onto their mom's backs or dragging them to safety is pretty routine & safe.

[@clynrow4031]

@@Anthony-zt1zs yes it probably would be that hard for a human to understand an animal, since me and the animal do not share the same thought pattern or cognition!. It's not about keeping the baby safe, you can pick the baby up with gentleness or encourage the baby to come with you without grabbing him like she's doing!!

[@clynrow4031]

@@Anthony-zt1zs and what damn harm do you see or danger in this video that a child would be in danger playing with others? The twins seem to be playing and their just fine. If it was that dangerous, the mother needs to get her baby, exit with baby to safety, if that's the case!

[@Anthony-zt1zs]

@@clynrow4031 Lots of potential danger which a baby THAT young may encounter when it's out of reach; which fortunately the mother is considering that you aren't. It includes anything from another unattended baby/clueless youngster poking him in his eye with a stick, to another aggressive mother harming him, by over-reacting to protect her own. When her baby gets more awareness of danger, she'll be more comfortable to have him interact with others & with more independence.

[@flxgld7096]

Well for starters... she's NOT HUMAN 🙊 Secondly it's in there nature the way they handle there young. One of the main attributes that separate us from "animals" is behavior's
