Just in time for "Zoo Babies" at the Cincinnati Zoo, the three-month-old Western Lowland gorilla named Gladys got to explore her new home for the first time in public Tuesday.
Kate Olukalns, Zoo Wild Encounters Coordinator, says over the course of the next few months, Gladys will be gradually introduced to the other gorillas, including several potential mother surrogates.
Currently, Gladys is being handled by a team of keepers who bottle-feed her and interact with her while wearing fur suits to encourage the idea of bonding with other gorillas.
The Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park sits atop 265 acres in Hamilton Ohio. It is beautifully decorated by many distinctive pieces of outdoor art located in and among the rolling hills and ponds. The park hosts many events throughout the year – from live music to yoga to weddings.
