NIP without a cover

https://www.sandiego6.com/news/local/Baby-gorilla-and-mom-head-outside--252360821.html

How dare this gorilla nurse her baby in public!  The public should not be forced to see this atrocity!

Shout out to @EAGUIRRE2, since I first saw this story on her FB :D

  • I love that picture! I wonder how long a gorilla's gestation period is...*off to google*...

  • Bonobos are the only monkeys that have sex for pleasure. Learned that in my anthropology class in college...pretty random

  • The nerve.

    Very sweet!
  • So cute. I love the picture :)
  • When @EAGUIRRE2‌, @Rmnam1‌, @queenbone‌ and I were there we didn't see the baby :( But we saw a mommy orangutan nursing while swinging from tree. We were informed they nurse for about 8 years!

    I used to work for this zoo! It's crazy to see how similar we are to gorillas. Our keepers would just go out to CVS and pick up a HPT in order to test if the gorilla was pregnant. How do you feel about that @stickstickly

    Also, @mom2bois85, you're right about bonobos. They solve all conflicts with sex or when they get really excited. They'll have male on male, female on female, adult on juvenile, it's pretty much all good. Talk about awkward when I'd be giving a tour and walk up on that happening. 


    Whose job was it to get the gorilla to pee on the stick?

    The keepers would keep the female separately from the troop in the bedrooms and just test the urine left behind on the floor. It would make it cooler if they taught them to pee on command.
