North America Western Lowland Gorilla Population

According to Gorillas Land, Spike of Disney's Animal Kingdom passed away back in July. Do any of you know if this is true?
Gorillas Land | M'bizi (Spike)

 

That is news to me; the zoo has not publicly announced his 'death'. Maybe a DAK regular could confirm?

 

I'm not sure if this is 100% true, since I recall seeing pictures of Spike on Instagram recently.

 

They could be old photos if they're not from DAK themselves; fingers crossed it's not true though.

 

Yes, it is. I just visited AK saturday and the staff told me this. Actually I was the first to release this information at FB.

Actually there are few more informations not so shocking:
• Grace also had developments issues (like Lilly. Genetics?)
• AK is working to move Flint and Cory.
• Gino is pretty healthy to a 42 yo male.

Also visited BG and Bolingo, Enzi and Oliver are together and fine.

 

That's tragic news, he wasn't that old, and from photos looked to be quite an impressive male.

Quite possibly, although Flint dosen't have any too despite being a full sibling? It may just potentially run with the females.

Makes sense as both males are now eight, about the age of dispersal for young blackbacks. I'd assume they'd be sent to be apart of a bachelor group somewhere together.

 

Lash at Jacksonville Zoo in Florida passed away at age 46.

Can someone give me info about the lone (1.0) gorilla at Monkey Jungle in Miami, Florida?

 

I just looked in the USDA Inspection Reports. The 3/27/19 Inspection notes 1 Western Gorilla, however, the 6/30/21 and 4/8/22 Inspections do not list any gorilla.

Gorillas Land notes that King, their lone gorilla, was euthanized on 4/13/21.

The Los Angeles Zoo announced today that Evelyn had to be euthanized.

 

Shalia at Atlanta is pregnant! Sire is Willie B. Jr., and the infant is due in May/June 2023.

 

Fantastic news! Thank you for sharing!

Few comments:

Calgary Zoo - Calgary, Alberta, Canada - 1.6.0

Matadi is alone, she didn't get along with Kojo

Busch Gardens Tampa - Tampa, Florida, USA - 3.1.0
Group 1: Bolingo, Enzi, Oliver → maybe Kishina?
Group 2: Kishina
Kishina is full time alone since Simsim's death, and before she would share the habitat only with him, she considered all other gorillas too rough and she is pretty dramatic.

I doubt that Charlie isn't with the family troop, but I don't have any information.

I heard that the troop is already together, at least the females are all together.

Is this recent? In the past Hodari and MajiMaji were separated due to Hodari stress on exibit, but were back together and on exibit.

Is this recent? Makes sense, Ivan was challenging Mrithi

 

Thank you for letting me know this information. Most of the information regarding the different housing arrangements is just information I found on Gorilla Land.

With the Milwaukee gorillas, I have seen Maji and Hodari alone on exhibit. The only ones I have seen together is the family group.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if Charlie hasn't been introduced to the main troop yet. Curtis only died a couple of months ago, so I'd imagine they'd allow the troop at least some time before beginning introductions to a new silverback (which can be quite lengthy).

 

Brookfield Zoo receive silverback:

1.0 Jontu (1997) has transferred from Saint Louis Zoo to Brookfield Zoo:

Brookfield Zoo welcomes new gorilla 'Jontu'

He joins their troop of five females.

1.0 Zachary (2015) has transferred from Brookfield Zoo to Saint Louis in his place.

 

Usually SSP's moves makes sense, but this time I don't get it. Why Jontu at Brookfield? He is closely relate to all the females, he is Binti Jua Nephew.
Charlie from Atlanta would be a great choice, or even Jawara or Ajari.

 

Maybe it’s a non-breeding transfer.

 

I agree with @joshgrossglaza this may in fact be a non breeding transfer - Binti Jua's line is quite well represented so they may be choosing to hold off breeding for a while. A silverback is still essential to a dynamic group though, so they were always going to swap in a silverback once Zachary was old enough for transfer.
