US-ZOO-GORILLA
The Smithsonian National Zoo's three-week-old female baby gorilla is held by her mother Mandara on February 2, 2009 in Washington, DC. Born on January 10, 2009 to 26-year-old Mandara and 16-year-old dad Baraka, Mandara is again proving herself to be an exemplary mother, and is caring for her baby with great confidence and tenderness. Thus far, Mandara and her baby girl are adapting to their new lives as Zoo celebrities and seem to be unfazed by the attention they?re receiving from the crowds of visitors flocking to the Great Ape House. Soon, Mandara will be transporting the baby on her back. The baby?s name will be determined in the coming weeks.
