Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Chimpanzee cheer: Video of reunion between endangered mother and baby goes viral
How do animals, say our close cousin chimpanzees, develop and feel maternal instinct? A video of an emotional reunion of a mother chimp and her newborn baby was taken at a zoo in Kansas, the USA. Even though a mother chimpanzee had been separated from her baby boy at birth because of a Cesarian operation, she immediately demonstrated a strong mothership when she met the baby boy for the first time two days after the C-section birth. She must have developed her maternal instinct while she was pregnant. But she wouldn’t have known if the baby chimp was indeed her baby. It seems that for an expecting mother, a baby is a baby. It doesn’t seem to matter whose baby it is to keep the species alive. Whatever the reason or motive was, her immediate attachment to the baby chimp shows how strong maternal instinct is.
Enjoy watching the video to find how instinctively a mother chimp is attached to her baby boy.
