Step inside the heartwarming world of Gladys, a young Western lowland gorilla at the Cincinnati Zoo, as she embraces motherhood with her adorable 1-month-old son, Mboko Jo. Gladys’ own journey was full of challenges—born at the Gladys Porter Zoo in Texas, her mother rejected her. Hand-raised by dedicated keepers wearing fur vests to simulate a gorilla mother, she was carefully introduced to her gorilla troop and ultimately raised by her foster mother, M’Linzi, with guidance from her foster father, Jomo.
Now, at age 12, Gladys is a devoted mom, cradling and nurturing Mboko Jo with tenderness and love. His name carries special meaning: “Mboko”, which means village or community in Lingala, honors the support that helped raise Gladys, while “Jo” pays tribute to her foster father, Jomo. Watching this mother-and-baby bond is a reminder of the care, patience, and family connections that define life in a gorilla troop, both in the wild and at the zoo.
In this short video, witness tender moments between mother and child—Mboko Jo’s tiny hands resting on Gladys’ chest, peaceful naps, and gentle grooming that highlight the deep bond between them. This story celebrates gorilla motherhood, the resilience of hand-raised gorillas, and the loving environment at the Cincinnati Zoo that helps these incredible animals thrive.
Perfect for gorilla lovers, animal enthusiasts, and wildlife fans, this video is a heartwarming glimpse into the lives of gorilla families, showing how even the tiniest hands can hold a world of love.
