Visitors to a Spanish Zoo witnessed a Christmas miracle early when a gorilla delivered a baby in front of their eyes.
This is a very special arrival. It’s the only gorilla to be born in Europe this year and the first in Spain since 2025.
Every birth of the critically endangered western lowland Gorilla is a huge win for conservation.
The mother, Wefa, gave birth to a baby girl, and far from seeking privacy, delivered her little one in the open air enclosure she calls home, with visitors witnessing every moment.
Staff at the conservation centre claim that the entire process was natural and fast, with no human intervention. This proves Wefa’s good health.
Wefa displayed impeccable maternal instincts from the moment she gave birth to her child, lovingly cradling it and taking care of it.
The other gorillas have responded to the gentle curiosity of the other gorillas with respect and a complex social dynamic.
