Детеныш гориллы - первый день рождения Моби в Пражском зоопарке

Join us as we celebrate Mobi's First Birthday at the Prague Zoo! This heartwarming video captures unforgettable moments of baby gorilla Mobi as she enjoys a day full of love and laughter. From her playful interactions with her family to her adorable reactions, Mobi will steal your heart.

Mobi is becoming more and more confident and it is a pleasure to watch her move on ropes or tease the black and white colobus monkeys. Mobi's name was suggested by the children from the Cameroonian town of Somalomo, where Prague Zoo has been educating local children about the uniqueness of the local nature for twelve years, thanks to the Wandering Bus conservation Project. Mobi translated from the local dialect badjoue means "heiress".

Although Mobi still drinks breast milk, she can now enjoy softer vegetables, cucumber, zucchini or eggplant. Their teeth cannot yet cope with harder root vegetables. "She would like to accept food from our hands. This is what we teach all gorillas in the background as part of veterninary training. However, her mother Duni is very protective, so Mobi's experiments usually end soon as she pulls her baby back into her arms." explained the main primate breeder Martin Vojacek.

This video is perfect for baby gorilla fans, European zoo enthusiasts, and animal lovers alike.
Whether you're a regular zoo visitor, a wildlife enthusiast, or just here for a dose of cuteness, this video is packed with joy and inspiration. Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe to our channel for more amazing videos featuring baby gorillas, and wildlife conservation!
