Mom Tamidol feeds her 28-day-old baby🍼🍼🍼 Makongo | The Lomako’s troop

On this day, I captured the scene of Tamidol feeding her son. The baby is only 28 days old, and Mom must hold him close at all times.
The little baby gazes at his mom with curiosity as she skillfully holds him close and begins to feed him milk🍼🍼🍼 While drinking milk, the little one's other hand rhythmically grabs onto his mom’s another breast. That’s a pair of powerful little hands. I hope 🙏he grows up healthy.
In GaiaZOO, a baby gorilla was born on April 9th. This marks the first birth of a gorilla in nearly ten years at the Kerkrade NL, and it's an endangered western lowland gorilla.
The father of this baby gorilla, Lomako, arrived in Kerkrade in the spring of 2022. He took over the leadership role after the passing of Makula, who died in June 2021. This is Lomako's first offspring. As for the mother, Tamidol, this is her second baby.
The baby is a boy👦, his name is Makongo

Awwwwww,, that little baby boy is at the milk bar and going to town he was very hungry 😊😊😊 I would love just to be able to grab him and give him kisses and then of course give him back to mummy ❤❤❤❤

[@AllThingsGorilla]

🤣🤣🤣 Once i grab him, i won't let go... I want to hold him in my arms all day, if I could feed him enough to be full.🍼🍼🍼

Tamidol has a beautiful face. She seems very attentive to her adorable baby.

[@AllThingsGorilla]

Yes🙌, she's a great mother,❤️ always holding Makongo. Sometimes she would lie down or lay on her side, still cradling the baby in her arms🥰🥰🥰.

[@MySkinnydip]

Nala has her uncle Kibabu’s eyes! She resembles his son Haoko and his daughter Momoka that have his eyes also! Just my opinion😊

[@AllThingsGorilla]

I absolutely love that you have the other ape species living with the Gorillas, what are they called?

We have two Zolas...one male in the US and this lovely female😊 Male Zola is very unique looking, and has a different personality 😅

[@MySkinnydip]

Male Zola is definitely one of a kind!😂

That little boy is so precious. Mum looks like she's doing a fantastic job and he looks very safe in his mama's arms. It's nice to see Dalila, while Gyasi her daughter sadly passed away, her granddaughter Tayari and her great grandson Jabali thrive in Taipei Zoo. She had wonderfully loving, quirky, inquisitive and intelligent children. She's a sweet gorilla and it's lovely to see her looking so well. 💖💖🦍

[@jasmijncyrine3862]

Is this tayaris grandmother??

[@AllThingsGorilla]

Thanks for the info. Dalila's always stuck in the corner, with no one to hang out with.

[@neptunes3279]

@@jasmijncyrine3862 Yes, she's also the grandmother of Kiango, Gyasi's youngest son.

[@neptunes3279]

@@AllThingsGorilla I'd heard that Dalila doesn't go out to eat when the others do with the keepers and she doesn't go out because she knows the keepers will bring her food anyway. I guess at 52 she can pretty much do what she likes 😂😂 It was just a lovely unexpected treat to see her again. Thank you 💐

[@AllThingsGorilla]

She looks well👍, but her movement is somewhat slow👵🏻.

[@gregsutton2400]

Tamidol is a very handsome and strong looking female. How old is she.

[@AllThingsGorilla]

Tamidol was born in 1998.

1:56 I think Genki has a twin. Momma looks so much like her. This Baby is super duper Cute.

[@neptunes3279]

Yes, she does look like Genki with little Kintaro. 😍

[@AllThingsGorilla]

You said exactly what I wanted to say.😘

[@camouflagekumquat3412]

No, she doesn’t. Genki is , hideous, overweight, and disfigured, she is the worst gorilla mother I've ever seen. Look at how she treats momotaro and not letting kintaro kids spend anytime with their father when They're littleand she drags I'm around by there feet bouncing their head off of dirt and rocks and wood.. If they Spend even the slightest amount of time with momotaro and only keeps them to herself. Selfishly, not for any altruistic reasons. She’s a terrible partner to her silverback, treats him like a second-class citizen, throws dirt and poop at him, and never lets him spend any time with his children or her. She literally will drag them by their foot, banging their head on rocks and wood just to get them away from him when he’s being so patient and gentle. How can anyone be so oblivious to how terrible of a gorilla she is? She goes around saying how great she is to people. It really makes me wonder what type of person would say that about a gorilla that acts like that. They’re basically condoning her behavior if all they do is say how great she is.

[@peggyjenkins5525]

She is giving that side eye look like “can’t a woman have a little privacy!!
