Keepers at Bristol Zoo have announced that their 'little miracle' Afia, the young Western lowland gorilla who has been hand-reared since birth, is now fully integrated with the gorilla troop. It's been an eventful journey since the young primate was born 10 months ago by emergency caesarean section and fought for her life before being cared for by keepers to ensure her survival. In that time keepers have given more than 1,570 bottle feeds, changed nearly 1,400 nappies, given 112 piggy back rides, and spent countless sleepless nights caring for her round-the-clock. Now, having reached a huge milestone, Afia is no longer being cared for by keepers but is spending 24-hours a day with her new gorilla family. She can often be seen exploring her new home on Gorilla Island, or clinging onto her new, surrogate mother gorilla, Romina.

The baby king colobus monkey being born by Caesarean
Baby mokey born by Caesarean at Paignton Zoo, Devon, UK - 26 Aug 2016
*Full story: http://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/sov2
A baby monkey born via Caesarean is being cared for by staff at Paignton Zoo after being rejected by her mother. Keepers became concerned after mother king colobus monkey Ivy went past her due date and became inactive and off her food. As she had successfully given birth previously they hoped that giving her some extra fluids, pain relief and time would mean she would give birth naturally. When this didn't happen the decision was made to operate due to fears that both Ivy and her unborn baby could die. According to Ghislaine Sayers, head of veterinary services at Paignton Zoo, they have only carried out three C-sections at the zoo in the last 16 years.
