Thank you 🫶🫶❤️🦍👶

[@peggyjenkins5525]

She is the most caring mother.

[@deniselloyd6659]

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🥰🥰🥰.

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👵🏻.

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.😘

[@ZombieQueen819]

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.🍼🍼🍼

[@MySkinnydip]

Tamidol has passed away. Sorry my friend. We lost another one. Poor Nala and Makongo!

[@ZombieQueen819]

@@MySkinnydip oh no poor baby,,😢😢😢 thank you 🙏

[@MySkinnydip]

@@ZombieQueen819 We have to start doing better at monitoring these gorillas health! Especially new moms! Hopefully Zola can take care of Makongo. Nala is too young and Dalila is pretty old. I’m praying hard for this troop! Tamidol is a great loss!🙏🏽

[@ZombieQueen819]

@@MySkinnydip okay I don’t/didn’t know the age’s. I’m off and on a lot nowadays and not getting to know that much about each new troop🥺🥺

[@PatriciaPageMosaicArtsCrafts]

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

[@AllThingsGorilla]

The monkeys living with them are Kuif mangabeys.🫶❤️🥰

[@PatriciaPageMosaicArtsCrafts]

@@AllThingsGorilla Thank you very much 😊👍🏾

[@AllThingsGorilla]

😊❤️🦍

[@ninawest8]

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!😂

[@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]

🫶❤️🥰They’re all beautiful 😍

[@peggyjenkins5525]

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

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

[@AllThingsGorilla]

Tamidol was born in 1998.

[@lemardyc]

She died shortly after this scene

[@laurie5804]

So heartbreaking. ​@@lemardyc

Amazing Tamidol was half sister to both Oumbi and Kibabu and half to Biju so she is Aunt to Haoko, Shabani, Momotaro. Lope, Okanda an Shufai

È una tristezza vederli dentro quelle gabbie

[@AllThingsGorilla]

Gorillas typically live 35 years in the wild, but in captivity, with better care and no predators, they can live up to 50-60 years.🤝♥️🦍🙏🙏💋
