Rare Gorilla Twins Surprise Staff at Burgers’ Zoo
When zoo keepers entered the Gorilla House at the Netherlands’ Burgers’ Zoo on June 13, they were taken by surprise: N’Gayla, the 20-year-old female Gorilla, had delivered twin babies overnight!Keepers knew that N’Gayla was pregnant, but they were not expecting her to deliver until later in the summer, and they were certainly not expecting twins. Gorillas normally have just one baby at a time. Twins in Gorillas are much rarer than in humans.
Surprised keeper Wilco Limpers explained what he saw that morning. “At first I did not expect to see twins. I was watching N’Gayla lick her baby clean, and suddenly she grabbed something from within the straw bedding – another baby Gorilla! I really did not know what I saw. Gorilla twins are seen only once or twice every ten years in European zoos.”
Baby Gorillas are small and helpless, requiring round-the-clock care from their mothers. Though N’Gayla has her hands full, she is an experienced mother who has already raised three youngsters successfully. The twins’ father, 23-year-old Bauwi, will play only a minor role in their care.

HOW THE FUCK ARE THESE BABIES SWIMMING I AM 21 AND CANNOT SWIM THIS IS SOME FUCK SHIT
Babies instinctively know when to hold their breathes!
Babies are amazingwhat
WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!? I HAVE TO HOLD MY NOSE AND THIS BABY DOESN’T HAVE TOO!?
What shitty parent discovered this
babies are naturally able to swim hello they just spent nine moths in amiotic fluid this is instinctive so no, parent is not shitty, parent is re-enforcing baby’s natural instinctive behaviour.
parent is good for doing this because parent is basically saying “yes the behaviours you were born with are great!”
Every baby in my family has started swimming at least by 6 months. Babies are naturals at it.
Also, teaching children how to swim as young as possible is SO important. So many young kids die because they wander into a pool and don’t know how to get to the top. There are classes for really little babies that basically teach them just how to float on their backs so they can breathe in case something like that happens.
