Newborn Gorilla at Toronto Zoo

[Catherine]

I will get out there as soon as I have a whole day off. I want to see the baby while it is tiny. The mom was so big when I was out there on New Years Eve. She looked so pregnant. She is a great mom and already has one son and took over being mom to an older female's half grown son when the older gorilla had a stroke and died.

I hope it is a girl this time. We have lots of boys. Charles has had many children and grand children. They live as a family unit and it is wonderful to watch the dynamics of the group. I suppose it is a little like a reality TV show, but way more interesting.
