Threre is a other baby gorilla in Beauval. The baby is a girl of Inge and Asato.

Do you know which is the third pregnant female?

Does one female(which?)still live separate with non-breeder male Yangu?

04-11-2007

The female who lived with Yangu is Inge who now has given birth to a (female) baby a few days ago, so the answer is no, the father of the baby is Asato. I`m not sure about the name of the 3rd female in the group. By the way, I checked the anciestry if Inge and found that she genetically a good match, her mother is Dorette (I think she died some years ago) and Dorette has only one other breeding offspring (male Horst/Harry in Dublin). Her father Matze is extremely well-represented, though.

Yes now yangu living alone. The females in beauval are: Tamarilla, Kabinda (1 birth) , Sheila et Inge (1 birth in 2007).

Yes, Matz has offspring in several breeding situations in Europe.

Horst/Harry in Dublin has three offspring there so far(all males) He's an odd male- never looks 'impressive' and often moves around with his hands on his ears.

Beauval- have done well with the gorillas since Asato arrived. Asato is the uncle of Mapema- who has just come to Duisburg. Both these males have a nearly identical history- see the European Gorilla thread for details.

I think perhaps the third female pregnant at Beauval may be 'Tamarilla'(ex Howletts) rather than Sheila? Sheila was born at Rotterdam and handraised, they tried to add her into the Apenheul group but she didn't integrate so was sent to Beauval instead.

Thanks. So to summarise;

Kabinda = male infant- name?
Inge = female infant(?)- name?
sheila= pregnant.

17-01-2008

Inge has a feamle called Mayombé, and my understanding was that Kabinda had a female too, called Khala.

17-01-2008

Kabinda ===> Khala , sex : male
Inge ===> sex : female; name : Mayombé

it seems like Kabinda's baby- Khala- was thought to be female but has turned out to be male...

Its good that Inge is rearing her baby- when she lived in Zurich she was never a good mother- I believe another female (Mamitu) used to steal her babies from her..
