Unhappy The universality of a mother's grief: Gorilla cradles her dying baby

Habt ihr davon gelesen? Musste sofort mitweinen als ich das gelesen habe Die arme tut mir so leid....


The universality of a mother's grief: Gorilla cradles her dying baby

Hers is the inconsolable grief of all mothers who lose a child.

Anyone who doubts the bond between the great apes and humans has only to look at these moving photos to see the emotions of love and loss that bind us together.

Gorilla Gana, 11, was left shattered in her compound at the zoo in Muenster in northern Germany at the weekend when her three-month-old baby Claudio suddenly died.



Grief: Mother Gorilla Gana clutches the body of her dead three month old baby Claudio

Visitors wept as Gana held her lifeless child up in the air, vainly seeking to restore movement to his lolling head, his limp arms.

She put the baby on her back and walked around, stopping to look at him after a few paces to see if he had recovered.




Gana carries the lifeless child with her at the zoo in Muenster
“Claudio died in his mother’s arms, with think from some heart defect,” said zoo director Joerg Adler.

“On Wednesday he gave the impression to keepers that he wasn’t feeling too well. On Friday he wasn’t eating or drinking properly and seemed to be growing weaker. We were keeping a close eye on him but suddenly, on Saturday morning, he died.”

The death of Claudio is a double tragedy for Gana; for reasons known only to the animal kingdom, she rejected her six week old daughter Mary Zwo last year. She was moved to a zoo in Stuttgart where she is healthy and one of the star attractions.

By Monday morning the zoo keepers were still unable to get to the body of Claudio, so fiercely is Gana guarding him.

“In the wild a gorilla mother can keep hold of a dead baby for weeks,” added Herr Adler. “We will carry out an autopsy on the body when we can.

“Gana doesn’t know it, but the whole of Germany is mourning with her. She is so sad right now.”

Wir waren zu der Zeit sogar im Zoo in Münster, wussten allerdings damals nichts von dem toten Gorilla Baby. Dort hatte man ein Schild am Gorilla Gehege befestigt, das die Situation erklärte.

Ist wirklich traurig, aber das passiert wohl in der freien Natur auch so und ich finde es gut, dass die Tierpfleger der Gorilla Mutter Gelegenheit gegeben haben, sich auf für Gorillas normale Art von ihrem Baby zu verabschieden.

Ich moechte gar nicht dran denken, den Schrei einer Mutter das gerade ihr neugeborenes verloren hat steckt mir immer noch im kopf und den knochen.

Ich muss dazu sagen...als wir das Schild mit dem Hinweis gelesen hatten, sind wir mit den Kindern nicht länger als nötig da stehen geblieben. Fand ich in dem Moment nicht gerade passend...wir sind dann zu den Schimpansen weitergegangen.

Und gut fand ich es, dass da kaum menschen drum herum gestanden haben und blöd gegafft haben....obwohl an dem tag doch sehr viel im Zoo los war.

Ich fand das auch so traurig.

Letztens kam im Fernsehn, dass sie wieder schwanger ist. Hoffentlich ist das Baby dann gesund.
