Riki is gonna be a huge silverback like his daddy. He is so built for a baby, more than most male gorilla babies I have seen. But he is going to be much nicer then his dad because his mama is very sweet and his sisters always loved to hold him and play with him. He is very brave and is already protecting his mama even though he is 6 years old right now.
I'm surprised mama gorilla let big daddy watch over the baby. He was really mean to his daughters, smacking them when they tried to come near the baby. They had been babysitting the baby, he probably took the baby away from them.
I went back to watch this in 2023 since the new baby Sumomo has been born. Haoko is still his steady self. The girl's are bigger but they treat the new baby the same they treated Riki. Haoko is still on watch over "his baby" disciplining as needed. He's Big Poppa and nothing happens to the babies without him knowing about it. Same with Momoko. 💗💗💗💗💗💗
Komomo was taking care of her sister at age 4 just like Riki wants to carry Sumomo. Komomo is a natural mom. Thank you. Do you have any of Komomo carrying Riki when he was a baby?
