This gorilla is Kiki. She recently had a baby named Pablo. My wife, Emmelina, also had a baby 5 weeks previous to this video. Kiki had brought her baby over to us and shared a connection with my wife and our baby boy Canyon. We hope you enjoy the video. (For licensing or usage, contact licensing@viralhog.com)

    @cococatpirate1686last year What a beautiful moment!
    kiki is fascinated in a human newborn baby, and then, she pointed at herself and the human baby again and again.
    id="hidden15" />she might' ve wanted to say " so beautiful baby! I also have my beautiful baby, we are mom friends! "
    they could be " mom friends" beyond differences of the species. At the very first sight
    she seemed to give your baby a cuddle. But at the same time, heart touching.
    if the human mom, emmelina, has enough time, please visit kiki & her baby pablo sometimes to show your beautiful canyon cause she' sone and only human mom friend"
    she probably would love to know how your baby is, and how human babies grow up

    @Bioshocking123 years ago Thats remarkable. I dont think people realize the level of cognitive ability it takes to be able to recognize an infant of a different species as som id="hidden19"ething similar to her own child and attempt to communicate that recognition to the mother, who she was also able to identify as being the caregiver of the infant in the same way she is for her baby.

    @marymagmartha745311 months ago when thegorillatapped on the window to get the baby' s attention ~ priceless it just warmed my heart. I believe that a moth instinct is in all created females.

Just the fact that she wanted to get a good look, she wanted it to open its eyes and see her. She kept positioning herself to see and when mom showed the little fingers ~ beautiful. ...Expand
