Even at 3 months old, Kalimba and Momo are smiling at dinner. Hirakawa Zoo Chimpanzee 202405

This channel focuses on the attractions and animal welfare of great apes (Chimpanzee, Gorilla, Orangutan).
We praise zoos that are proactive about animal welfare and environmental enrichment,
and strongly criticize those that are passive about animal welfare and environmental enrichment,
and demand that animal welfare be implemented.
*Environmental enrichment is a measure to reduce
their mental and physical stress and have them live a happy life from the standpoint of an ape,
not from a human convenience or emotion.
Among them,
foraging enrichment (installing puzzle feeders and increasing the number of meals so that apes can lead a rich life) can be done at low cost.

モモママ、カリンバのお世話しながらパクパク、食欲旺盛ですね。途中カリンバの歩行訓練？かな。このまま無事に育って欲しいです。親子の様子をこんなにじっくりみられるなんて有難い。研究所さんに感謝です🙏以前京都の松沢氏の映像でも死んだ子供を骨になっても離さない野生のチンパンジーをみました。衝撃を受けましたが、子供を亡くした親の気持ちは計り知れないものがありますね。

[@GreatApesZoo]

モモママは、人がいても気にしないタイプなんですよね。だからいつもここで会えるんでしょうけど。愛おしいママの気持ちが伝わってきます。

[@由美子工藤-y1u]

いとうしそうにカリンバチャンを扱うモモの姿に感動しました!こんなに小さくても瞳をキラキラさせて満面の笑顔で❤愛情深い親子の様子をここまでしっかり見られたのは生まれて始めてです✨何事も無く無事に成長できます様に😊ありがとうございました✨🙏

[@GreatApesZoo]

多くのチンプママは、子を守ろうとなかなか防御が硬いですが、モモママはおおらかなので近くまで連れてきてくれます。ありがたき幸せ❤️ありがとうございます。

[@GreatApesZoo]

[@Scott_Wheat]

[@GreatApesZoo]

🥰💖🙏

[@海野カモメ-c9w]

幸せを感じたら、笑顔になれる、それがチンパンジー。私たちと同じ。宝物は手放したくはない、それも私たちと同じ。スクスク育ってほしい、モモさんの宝物、カリンバちゃん。　でも、もう少しだけ自由にさせてあげてね。

[@GreatApesZoo]

チンパンジーも楽しい時は、笑顔になれる。モモママも子供にとって何が楽しいか心得てますね。❤️

[@shawna6683]

This is the exact meal I want the chimps at Agashyama (sp?) to have every day 😢

[@GreatApesZoo]

❤️🙏

[@ChristineCole-kl4vu]

That's probably the best meal I have seen any monkey or ape or gorilla get given yet,and even better all to herself,no one can take it from her,well done if they all get this then that is great and if not ,why not?

[@NakataKeiko]

カリンバの腕が抜けそう。。と思うくらい、絶対離さないんですね。めっちゃかわいい女の子で、いつまでも見ていられる光景でした。研究所さん、ニタァーってなりましたか？モモのご飯も、すごく興味深かったです。また、カリンバの成長過程が見たいです！研究所さん、よろしくお願いします♪♪

[@GreatApesZoo]

生まれて間もないのにこの笑顔を見ると、何が幸せか伝わってきます。 優しいイチローとライチと遊べるようになるのが楽しみですね。✌️

I was thinking the same thing 🤣

Baby girl is so cute!!!

Incredible to watch a good female chimp mother go about her business. Training her little one to walk, etc etc.

[@Starkiller1981]

Nice to see a mom well fed

[@bradleywalsh4103]

This is a great video. Such an immense love between mom and baby. Gentle and caring in everything she does for Kalimba.

[@GreatApesZoo]

Thank you so much .❤️🙏

[@jimmyjames2903]

They are both so beautifully healthy praise the Lord some of that others who they need to take note

[@Starkiller1981]

So smart to soak monkey biscuits in water.

[@EmmaDee]

She’s not going to allow baby to even sample that food.

[@badmonkey2222]

Why won't she let the baby eat anything!?

[@GreatApesZoo]

This baby is newborn and can only drink its mother's milk.

[@EmmaDee]

@@GreatApesZoooh ok. I was hoping a little banana or anything soft.

[@EmmaDee]

She seems like she’s afraid to eat as much of the food as she would like. That’s sad.

[@badmonkey2222]

@@GreatApesZoo baby is a little more than newborn I mean nothing wrong with letting baby taste new things because she's obviously curious. I understand that she is not quite old enough and still teething.

[@badmonkey2222]

@@EmmaDee yeah exactly
