Silverback Gorilla Mbeli Introduced to his Female Troop - Cincinnati Zoo

Our new silverback, Mbeli, is now being housed with the Chew Crew full-time. They continue to do well, learning how to act as a cohesive group. With gorillas, animal care professionals know a troop is doing well based on key social behaviors. Spending time in proximity to each other, sharing food, and lots of relaxed lounging are positive signs we see frequently with Mbeli's new gorilla family!  This great video is brought to you by Great American Insurance Group.
