A baby western lowland gorilla was born at the National Zoo yesterday in full view of visitors and a zoo volunteer

Must've been quite the show, and possibly quite disturbing.

Mandara is 26 years old and has given birth to five other babies over the years. The baby gorilla's father is Baraka, who is 16 years old.

Yes he can!

I really, really hate to be "that guy" -- but why are stories about animal X being born in zoo Y so popular?

"Mandara is 26 years old and has given birth to five other babies over the years. The baby gorilla's father is Baraka, who is 16 years old."

A clear case of statutory rape, I hope they arrest that gorilla and prosecute her to the fullest extent of the law.

Because

Let's play "find the new guy on Fark."

The stories are popular because they've always been put on Fark. "Ugly ass" baby animals even are in the FArQ.

Wait, wait.

Was she hot? Because if she is, the father should be given a pat on the back. I know if I were banging a hot 26-year-old when I was 16, my father would have high-fived me.

If she's ugly, though, like a...gorilla or something, then lock her up and throw away the key.

Because human women would be pissed if we were able to watch the give birth from the other side of a plate glass window while the machine that goes 'ping' enumerates the spectacle...

Came in to make sure no one posted "the monkey is Obama's son". That would be Hate Speech up in here.
I am so here to help.

Wanted for questioning.

They're popular in general because they often involve an endangered species. And because breeding in captivity isn't always that easy. It's a scientific thing ;)

This is bad news... for Baraka

Ape tit

The baby gorilla's father is Baraka, who is 16 years old.
Ooow, so close, what's the daddy's middle name, Mohammed?

Unfortunately, the highlander gorillas are soon to be extinct, since there can be only one.

SeriousGeorge: Gorilla gorilla gorilla?

Genus, species, sub-species.

All gorilla's are in the Genus Gorilla. There are then two species, western (gorilla), and eastern (beringei), with two subspeices each (lowland x2, cross river, and mountain)
