Baby Gorilla born at Durrell

Durrell is delighted to announce the arrival of a bouncing, baby western lowland gorilla. Proud mum, Hlala Kahilli gave birth to a healthy baby in the early hours of this morning. The new arrival was born early this morning and it will be a while until we can so far ascertain whether it’s a boy or a girl as mother is keeping the baby close to her chest.This baby is the first to be born at Durrell for nine years following the introduction of new dominant silverback Badongo, who incidentally also celebrates his thirteenth birthday today.
