Report: What about fate of Gorilla Gentaro in the near future｜Momotaro family. Subtitle function ON!

Please turn on the subtitle function. Let me speculate on Gentaro's next few years. From my personal view, taking into account the current situation surrounding Gentaro today, I will guess his fate.
ps Today's brothers Gentaro and Kintaro were, in any case, excited and chased each other for a long time. It is rare to see them for such a long time.

MOMOTARO & GENKI Family ( Momotaro Fam)
Father MOMOTARO ♂(2000/7/3)　
He is hesitant in new situations and is a loner.
His father died before he was born, and he had never spent time with a silverback.
He had already turned into a silverback by the time he was 10 years old.
He is struggling with unfamiliar child-rearing.
MOMOTARO's father is BIJU.
MOMOTARO's mother is MOMOKO
　　
Mother GENKI ♀ (1986/6/24)　　　
She is 14 years older than Momotaro and has a role to support the whole family mentally.
She has had a tumultuous and eventful life.
She has returned to her birthplace, Kyoto City Zoo.
She had never been blessed with a baby but after meeting Momotaro,
she had two sons.
She is a very maternal female gorilla.
GENKI's father is MAC.
GENKI's mother is HIROMI.
First son GENTARO, male (2011/12/21)
He was separated from his mother Genki soon after he was born.
Genki's milk production was not very good.
He was raised by his keeper for his first10 months.
Because of this, he is very fond of humans.
His face is so expressive, and everyone enjoys watching him.
Second son KINTARO ♂ (2018/12/19)
He is just very strong-willed and independent.
He has big eyes and long eyebrows.
The way he plays a lot with his brother Gentaro makes everyone smile.
We can't wait to see what kind of gorilla he'll become!
Strength of a gorilla .

One more question with the video numbers game , I am not sure about ,so when they play ,are they counting numbers going down , like they are always going down or up close to being in order ?

[@Gorilla-Life]

@@user-on4uj6ri4r To be exact, they don't count numbers. They memorize them in order like a picture. Then they click them displayed on the screen. from one to fifteen. in Gentaros'case. For example,,, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, ,,,,,,,,,,,

[@shayshayc3609]

That’s true they memorize them in order

[@harlemcattux7997]

Finding a mate and a habitat for Gentaro seems complicated. We all want a happy, healthy, well cared for future for him in comfortable surroundings with a mate that matches his temperament.

[@mchantloup5]

You have to remember, also, that Momotaro was raised by a very capable mother but never knew another male gorilla before his son, Gentaro, and that has added to their closeness.

[@timm_Rudiger]

Thank you for your report about Gentaro situation! I hope he would not live alone, gorillas are social animals, they need other gorillas around, especially Gentaro who used to be behind his mama, papa and play a lot with his young brother, It would be heartbreaking for him all of the sudden to be alone. It's obvious that Momotaro loves Gentaro a lot, no matter what toxic commenters speculate. Gentaro is his first kid, Momotaro sometimes could be overreacting but he was very young when he become a father, and absolutely unexperienced in interecting with other gorillas especially little kid. But Momo did great, and it's natural that he attached to Gentaro a lot, it will be very stressful for him when Gentaro leave. Beautiful family.

[@karenthompson8151]

Thank your for your insight of information. Bottom line is Gentaro deserves his own mate and troop. Along with Kiyo, Komomo,Momoka and Annie. Annie is the only possible mate if they cannot bring gorillas overseas. That has to change somehow, that leaves the others who don’t have a new bloodline in Japan. It’s ridiculous. Then you will have Riki and Kintaro in the same situation. Japan don’t want to lose Gentaro because he is loved by so many people and this zoo brings in the people who want to see this family. Where the rich people on Japan who are willing to assist this problem. Trust me if I had that money I would help each of them. They are amazing animals who deserve a happy fulfilled life.

The zoo could do fundraising starting with the huge fan base of the Momotoro family. These beautiful creatures need a much better enclosure, with grass and trees and room to roam. Its painful to watch this family still cooped up in this cage. Its not fair to them.....

Oh my God, Gentaro is so dear to all of us. The Momotaro family is very close-knit. When Momotaro got sick everyone was sad and Kintaro even lost weight. He lost his belly. I love this family, I've followed Gentaro since he was a baby, I wouldn't want to see him leave Japan and Kintaro will be sad too. I really hope that everything can be resolved as carefully as possible. If Momotaro gets sick, everyone will feel sad and not want to eat. I am worried.

There are no words to express how happy I am that renovations are in the near future...It has been the wish of mine and so many others to see this beautiful family in a larger, greener and cleaner environment....I cant wait to see what the future holds...I have so much love for the Momo Family ❤

[@Kim-lc3fv]

Sounds very complicated. Kyoto and Chiba need to agree on whatever final decision. A large new enclosure is needed for any solution. Either a bachelor group or a new family with Gentaro and Annie as a couple could live there.

[@AlinaWhitfield0510]

Thank you for such valuable information and let us have faith and be positive that the future of gorillas in Japan will change in the near future because if not, these extraordinary animals will be destined to live alone. 😢My handsome Gentaro I hope you have your own family in the near future and Komomo, Momoka, Kiyomasa and Annie too❤❤

[@jossetteking4967]

He certainly deserves a family of his own. ( I believe Annie would be the perfect mate for him. ) It's unfortunate that the "owners" don't think things through before breeding. They don't consider what happens as the animal grows, where it will end up, etc. Another thing that irritates me is that little consideration for Gentaro and what's best for him. Keeping him confined with his birth family just because Momotaro might fall ill or because his brother might miss him is wrong. They'd get over it eventually. Gentaro's needs must be met.

[@angelaalbuquerque5996]

Outros países deveriam participar desse projeto de proteção aos gorilas para que fosse mais fácil formar novas tropas.

[@TheFlashyWeasel]

@@jossetteking4967 Exactly-he will adapt-just as Gentaro will adapt to his new environment when that time comes-it would be unfair to him to keep him within his family because it bothers people that one or the other would be lonely or fall ill...what has to be done, is done for HIS benefit...if we kept offspring together all the time, there would be no need to conserve the species.. zoo animals are broken up for this very reason-to keep the species viable and expand their numbers with non related mates-that's the whole purpose.

[@jossetteking4967]

@@TheFlashyWeasel Thank you for your input and understanding. I often feel like I am alone in caring about Gentaro --- and others may be in a similar situation. It seems to me that he is little more than an afterthought to people. He deserves much better. I'm not impressed with his "owner" who seems to "kick the can" down the road rather than considering Gentaro's needs and making a decision. One that will benefit him.

[@PIA-tj5hc]

No way Ai……Nene is old and Shabani need a young mate like Ai. It’s clear Japan wasn’t prepareand for gorilla groups and still isn’t prepared. Japan needs to surrender the teenage gorillas to other countries. They need to start fund raising and transfer them in the next few years!!!!! Gentaro, Komoko, Momoka, Kimoysa all need to be placed!!!

[@PatriciaPageMosaicArtsCrafts]

Agree 100%

[@sonjavandam1306]

😢😢😢

[@vjc2270]

Harsh, but I think I have to agree. 😢 The problem is that Japanese zoos are run by local city councils that are not usually part of the international gorilla breeding and management program. This is not a criticism of the zoo staff, as we can all see how much the staff here love and care for the Momotaro family❣️ However, not being part of the international effort makes it harder to transfer gorillas of mating age in a cost-effective manner. Plus, there is a worldwide issue with teenage male gorillas in captivity. One Silverback usually forms a troupe with several females, so there are ‘surplus’ males. It’s great if zoos have the space to accommodate bachelor troupes, but some zoos with limited space have castrated young males. 😢 I sincerely hope that a solution can be found that allows Gentaro to have a family of his own - without having to wait for Haoko or Shabani to die, which is a horrible thought! 😨 I wish some of these celebrities who are funding research into resurrecting extinct species like the woolly mammoth or the dodo would put their money into helping animals that are actually alive now and in desperate need of resources! 😢

[@PatriciaPageMosaicArtsCrafts]

[@ruthnuss30]

😢I’m sure you will find a suitable habitat for Gentaro. Poor Gentaro, he looks so sad 😢❤❤❤

[@Kiowa371]

I hope my sweet Annie is not slated for this family…Heck no 😩. I’m having a hard time believing the US would send a gorilla to any zoo mentioned in the commentary. The owner(s) need to build a bachelor park much like the one built for Frank and Monroe at the San Diego zoo. That enclosure is absolutely beautiful. This zoo and the likes of others have made their money off the backs of these animals. The least they can do is provide decent and adequate housing, food, and care for their animals.

[@m.w.976]

*EXACTLY! and that's the reason they'll never let Gentaro go --- $$$$. They've had nearly 12 years to work on this situation regarding Gentaro. TWELVE YEARS!*

[@sweetsue1971]

Sound to me like they never should have gotten gorillas in the first place. Can't or won't get gorillas from other places and all these gorillas with next to no chance of having a mate. Momo has one who is close to not being able to have anymore babies as well. I wish they all could be transferred.

[@trekwithsarvadnyachaudhari245]

It really feels very bad for Gentaro's migration in future 😢 I could wish he stays always near with his family .

I wish that instead of thinking of breeding these gorillas, they would do something to give them a better enclosure. Do some fundraising specifically for Momotoros family. Since there is a huge fan base through the internet why not do fundraising from all the fans who love this gorilla family. Its difficult to watch these videos anymore and have to see the 4 of them locked up this way 😢 they need grass, and trees to climb, they need to wander in nature. They are so beautiful and deserving of a better habitat. Please consider this before breeding Gentaro.

[@ladiabla4171]

I know this is something that has to happen but omg, it makes me so sad. I hope that they don't send him overseas. He will be so scared, lonely, stressed and depressed. My poor baby. Wishing for the best decision and for Gentaro's happiness.

[@dreamcatcherjulie1]

At least overseas he will have some sort of a normal gorilla life unlike where he is now. Japan will put Gentaro by himself you think that is better.? I have been watching these gorillas for years I just stopped watching this channel because of the rumors this channel has spread. Yes, it will be terrible for all of them if Gentaro had to leave but eventually he would settle into his new home.... YOu need to watch the video when Momotaro came to this zoo he was terrified and scared and I only watched it once as it was so upsetting for me to see him that way. Genki cannot have any other female gorillas now after what she has been through and they know that. They are supposed to be many- in a gorillas family not just one mom and dad and their kids. Getting any gorillas out of that country would be VERY beneficial to whatever gorilla could get out. NO one is sending them new gorillas after past history so they need to make a deal to let these animals have a happy, invigorating life instead of just sitting there looking at each other. I have not heard any new news. I would like to know where this guy gets his information as something he said in one of his " info. videos" was not correct and he did not say "this is my opinion" in which case it would not be an outright lie. I have no bad thoughts about japan it's a beautiful country and most of the people are very nice. But research how their culture feels about animals and what they think an animal's life is worth and you want all the gorillas out of there. Do some research on Japan and zoo animals, look in some journals, It's really terrible. I am not saying zookeepers abuse the animals I am saying they should not be raising gorillas in Japan, that's all.

[@dreamcatcherjulie1]

EDIT: I did not watch the video to hear him talk about his ideas about Gentaro as I heard him talk about it about a year ago and nothing is fact it's his thoughts and nobody has done anything about these teenage gorillas that need to be moved and matched with the opposite sex so they can be happy.

[@wernervannuffel2608]

WOW... so much top information given in the subtitles of this video about the future of Gentaro. Just great! 👌👍 Gentaro is the masquotte and ambassador for gorilla's of Japan. It would be great if he could stay in the Kyoto City Zoo or at least in the Chiba Zoo of the actual owner of Gentaro. And the health issue of Momotaro - in relationship to Gentaro - is and will be (and will stay) willy nilly a key factor that maybe will determinate the final choices that one day needs to be made by the Kyoto City Zoo. A new gorilla house sounds great... hopely with an build-in opportunity that Gentaro and his wive(s) and children and father Momotaro, mother Genki and little brother Kintaro can still visit or at least see - in one way or another - each other on a regulary basis. Yeah : this would be "super".... And there seems also to be a contact with the zoo of Taiwan with the Djeeco gorilla family, with the little gorilla boys Jabali and Ringo... Good to know... Hopely Annie becomes the wife of Gentaro... And Japan need to keep Gentaro into Japan... He is very popular and very loved in Japan... I'm sure of this. For each zoo gorilla's are somewhere the greatest "atttraction", even this can sound silly or unappropriate.. But it is what it is.... And something that needs to be taken in consideration too...

[@bobbibulriss2011]

I became aware of this gorilla family a couple of yrs ago and have followed them extremely closely ever since. I have been surprised that little mention has been made of the effect that Gentaro's separation from the family will have on Kintaro. They have been so close, though since Gentaro has matured, they are clearly playing a lot less and in so doing, perhaps becoming more independent of each other, moreso Gentaro more independent of Kintaro. (I actually think that is the reason why Kintaro has been "acting out" with Genki: He has less interaction with Gentaro, so he seeks playful attention from Genki.). I think that the separation of Gentaro from the family will have a negative impact on all family members, and most on Gentaro and Kintaro. Perhaps little mention is made of Kintaro's response to Gentaro's separation because Kintaro is the youngest and has time to adjust; regardless, I think it will be devastating for the two of them. I absolutely dread that time, though I know it will ultimately be best for Gentaro by giving him the opportunity to have his own family. I adore them both with their polar opposite personalities: Gentaro so sensitive and gentle, and Kintaro so outgoing, active active and full of personality.

[@lm9991]

Thanks GL. If Chiba renovates also it's treatment of animals and renovates a large gorilla exhibit, then a bachelor group with the young boys is probably the best option for the forseeable future. If D'Jeeco could sire some female offspring, it would help down the road. I think they should send Komono to Taiwan - if the area is large enough. She is so ready to have her own family. I don't think they can send Momoka anywhere alone, but if there is space she could go with Komono. Then if Tayari and Irika have some daughters they could come to Japan. The sisters Tayari and Irika can not be separated. But what of dear Gentaro and Kintaro? A bachelor group in a nice zoo that is large enough could be good, for all of Japan's young males.

Hojala el niño Gentaro pueda quedarse en ese país y no en un país extranjero y pueda estar con sus padres hasta que en su hábitat natural se lo permita 😢😢 porque es un niño gorila para mí y se entiende el gasto que se tiene con ellos y espero y se tomen las mejores decisiones pensando en los gorilas ,hojala puedan realizar lo que ya se hiso con EEUU sería muy bueno, pero espero y ninguno de los gorilas que tiene Japón se vaya creo que ellos están bien cuidados por los encargados de ellos y los quieren y se ve que es mutuo ya que han logrado algo muy cercano que es que ellos los quieran y los busquen a ustedes a través de la reja y los espien haber que sucede con ustedes creo que es recíproco de los gorilas el amor hacia ustedes 😮😢😢😢😢 porque estoy segura que si ellos hablarán como nosotros los humanos ellos preferían quedarse con ustedes

Thank you for all the information provided in this video. It gave alot of insight into Gentaro wellfair. I think one the day comes for our lovely Gentaro to be moved it will be so upsetting for the family but especially Kintaro... he and his big brother obviously love each so much. Thankfully they still have time together and enjoy growing up together 💛💛

[@chericonnolly4810]

Thanks again for the updates you do! It's a lot to think about! I love that they have thought of all scenarios for Gentaro. He's in good hands and l know they will do what's best for him and the entire family ❤️🦍

[@yenghua3143]

Gorilla Life thanks for sharing your thoughts😊.

[@sandragarcia-qv2or]

Mi bebé grande no estés triste todos re quieren pero no te comprenden Y YO TE QUIERO TE AMO Y TE COMPRENDO❤❤❤❤

[@Nativebeautys]

Omg, Annie would be prefect for him. I follow both Zoos and that will be so amazing.

[@valdetebottazzini9260]

😮How incredible! Not even humans are that loving!

[@deniied5414]

Lope who I believe is a little younger than Gentaro was recently shipped off, when I seen recent vids of him he was in rampage mode going after his younger brother and sometimes his aunty and grandma. Dont really see this with Gentaro although his occasional beat momma Genki up.

[@user-sk1su7vg3m]

He is turning 8nto a nice silverback, soon he will be getting a mate. He will be good

[@claudiaalejandraluengo4940]

Realmente me apena esta situación ya que esta familia es muy unida, pero también creo que el espacio es reducido. Sería ideal que pudieran vivir en un espacio más amplio sin necesidad de trasladar a ninguno.

[@lyncee6953]

Une chose est certain,que la famille Momotaro mérite un endroit plus grand et plus digne que ce « cagibi »actuel !

[@sandragarcia-qv2or]

😢Que situacion!!😢😢😢 que va a pasar con nuestro nino grande ? Y con kintarito?porque ellos son muy muy dependientes uno del otro y GRACIAS. A GENTARO NUESTRO BEBE KINTY ES FELIZ

[@lucianaaidawati]

Ahkirnya bahasa indonesia muncul otomatis . Terimakasih mr go go gorila . GENTARO TETAP IMUT , dia memiliki cara menatap sendiri dan momo juga memliki cara menatap sendiri 😂😂😂 momotaro akan lurus matanya . Gentaro mirip mama genki dan menatap wajah ,sedikit menunduk lalu mwtanya melotot 😂😂😂😂😂

[@ZombieQueen819]

I can understand about Chiba zoo having the final say in what happens with Gentaro I can… I don’t like it butttttt who am I toooo have any say in where he may end up.. now that it’s getting closer and closer that Gentaro is going to be a silverback is killing me just like with Kiyomasa.. I just happy they aren’t taking him away now they have to wait so they can decide the correct and best place for my baby😢😢❤❤❤❤❤

[@user-ef3im8pz3y]

Как быстро вырос , наш любимый Гентаро.

[@flaviablanco8245]

Mi corazón se quebró cuando se llevaron a Lope es especial lo seguí por años y se lo llevaron a Francia no lo e visto más , lástima mi hermoso Lope espero que se aparee y tenga su propia tropa , sigo al zoológico y no lo e visto , mi adorado Lope te deseo lo mejor 🦍🙏💙🥹

[@rxco459]

Por favor, todos juntos en familia, no es bueno separarlo Gentaro va extrañar y tienen que tener en cuenta que tiene un hermano menor que es Kintaro, va extrañar muchísimo se puede enfermar, se acuerdan cuando uno de ellos enfermo del estomago y no salia, como estaban todos mal tristes, ni comian, entonces la separación no es bueno, todos en familia, la unión hace la fuerza, millones de bendiciones para toda la familia.

[@shawna6683]

Haaaahaha!😂As for Taipei zoo, there is no way Tayari and Gentaro would get along. Impossible due to Jabali but it’s funny.

[@theresam.1899]

It’s sad this gorilla will never get to be a father.

[@cristinadiazdelacruz2806]

😢no lo quiero ni pensar

[@inezandrade106]

Eles já prepararam um segundo terreno, onde irá ficar o pequeno Gentaro.

[@flaviablanco8245]

No creo lo dejen , se llevaron a Lope a Francia e quedado quebrada por dentro el era especial lo seguí por 11 años y a su hermano Shufai lo castraron para poderse quedar con la familia nunca entenderé muchas , pero los Gorilas silverbacks ya no quieren a los hijos mayores en la familia ,si Gentaro sigue creciendo más Mono lo acosara más espero pronto lo trasladen , el merece tener su propia familia 😢,

[@erykah835]

His lil brother love him a lot so don't move him keep them together 😍

[@coolkillab5236]

Maybe they could send some of the older gorillas like Winston to the sanctuary to rest? They are on display til they die. Not even retirement. They should be at least given some rest.

[@jacquilambneveroncethought281]

Am so glad they get more space

[@user-sj9py2ff6l]

A família tem q crescer ❤❤❤❤

[@jayhiggins6409]

My dear gintaro I love 💗😘 you so very much and I do hope that you will have your own family near in the future you deserve to be happy 😁 your a lovely big boy and shouldn't be wasted to die laying in a corner depressed 😔 you need love 💗 and happiness my boy I love you gintaro and my family love you too

[@SamUndJet]

Thank you for your candor in sharing what zookeepers and zoo administrators are planning. It’s educational to know the various cautions and considerations they must bear in mind as they plan for Gentaro’s fast-arriving maturity. An arranged marriage with Annie sounds wonderful. But, considering that Gentaro has grown up observing the virtually nonsexual Momotaro, aren’t there concerns that he might not know how to fulfill his duties as a bridegroom?

[@vernbarnes8007]

I would say get that boy a room and a girlfriend and let him do what comes naturally to him i bet you would see a whole different gentaro.

[@SoniaGL]

Thank you very much for your comments, we are very interested in the future of Momotaro's family, as well as that of Shabani's and Haoko's. and we avidly read everything that is published; In reality, we just need a little patience, how difficult!! Again, thank you very much for your great work, greetings from Spain.

[@blancadiaz5602]

Genaro se tiene que quedar en Japón

[@jogarth2444]

I sometimes wonder if they would keep Shabani and Kiyo as a batchelor group as they are very close, though it would be a shame for Kiyo not to have off spring with his mother’s genes under represented.

[@user-ls4vl6lf2u]

Gentaro se va a traumar mucho mas de los trauma que tiene .va entrar en depresión ...

[@erykah835]

Please keep this family together 🙏

[@gloriamabelfigueroa6905]

Yo les pediria que siempre muestren de Gentaro si lo separan de su familia quiciera saber de Gentaro cuando lo trasladen a su destino .

[@reesedade3076]

Omg his mother is going to freak out when he leaves.

[@ericoder]

親近婚を避けるのが当然のように考えている方が多いのですが、実はインセスト・タブーは人間の文化的な問題だったりします。 これはレヴィ・ストロースの『親族の基本構造』などで説明されています。 実際に人間でもいとこ婚が40％を超す地域もあります。（これは族内婚とか内婚と呼ばれます） 遺伝子疾患のことを心配するかもしれませんが、絶滅危惧のゴリラが心配するほどのことではないと思います。 欧米は親近婚に対してセンシティブで、客が生理的に受け付けないなら、ゴリラといえども難しいかもしれません。 ですが日本人は欧米に比べると近親婚に対して文化的に寛容なので大丈夫だと思います。ゲンタロウはゲンキ以外日本のすべての雌ゴリラが対象になり得ます。 (個人的には面識のある親子以外は問題ないと思います) ゴリラは非常に繊細な動物で、今までゴリラが移動直後にどれだけ亡くなったかを考えると、血筋のことなど考えず一夫多妻の群を作ることを優先した方が良いのではないでしょうか。 モモタロウのヘルメット恐怖症や、東山の新ゴリラ舎への移動を見ても、ゴリラの移動がいかに大変か分かりますが、大変だからこそなんとか移動に慣れさせることは出来ないものかなとよく考えます。トレーニング場もそのためのアイデアなんでしょう。例えば、群全体で数ヶ月だけ他の施設に移動して、再び戻ってくるみたいなことが出来ると良いのに。 あと、日本平動物園のゴロンの過去記事を読んでいて思ったのですが、ゴリラがトレードで入れ替わりで別のゴリラがやってくるというスタイルは、そうとうゴリラは困惑してパニックになるだろうなあと思いました。もしかするとゴロンは、ずっと一緒に暮らしていたトトが、突然姿も声も変わってしまって、自分のことを忘れてしまったと勘違いしたのではないだろうか？とさえ思いました。 移動した後もそのゴリラが他の施設で元気に暮らしていることが、家族に伝わるようになんとか工夫してほしいです。

[@luciastigliani7810]

Genchi gentaro 🦍❤❤❤❤❤

[@thewisepowerchair2369]

The Hagashiyama zoo stated that Annie will not be mated with Gentaro.

[@irenekopec9892]

😢 ❤🦍

[@nadinelemeur1939]

Merci pour toutes ces informations. Triste quand même faut l avoué. Je ne voudrais pas que gentaro reste célibataire toute ça vie ce serai tellement triste. Mais c bien de l avoir dit il n'y a pas que gentaro il y a les enfants de shabani de haoko aussi. Pourquoi faire tant de naissance si au final tt ces enfants gorille ne peuvent créer leur propre famille ça me dépasse 😢 et de devoir vivre en groupe de célibataire 😢

[@dominiquejacqueline5115]

Je partage un chouïa votre avis mais je n’oublie pas que les gorilles sont une espèce menacée et protégée. J’ignore s’il faut se féliciter de leur préservation en captivité ou dans des zoos à ciel ouvert mais suis heureuse d’avoir découvert ces vidéos en particulier, considérant modestement que c’est la plus attachante et plus jolie famille de gorilles sur la toile 😊 Même célibataire sans pouvoir prolonger son espèce, la naissance d’un gorille comme de toutes les espèces animales en voie de disparition sont un privilège, une chance. Et Gentaro dans mon cas est le plus beau, le plus adorable des gorilles avec une mère gorille irremplaçable ;o)

[@donnagermaneri3855]

They can't put a troop together. Only nature can do that. They always look so sad. They don't know they are gorillas. They wait for food and look so sad

[@JB19504]

I wonder if the good relationship between Gentaro and Momo will continue when Gentaro becomes a fully matured Silverback? That is usually when problems arise, although the only female here is the mother, so maybe that won't happen.

[@simplylovie9015]

I don't know if he would be mentally able to be by himself with a strange gorilla, unless she strongly attracts something in him. Gentaro is stubborn

[@shayshayc3609]

Gentaro is not ready to be transfer oversea he going to get very sick if your move him. He already feel alone
