This little baby gorilla was recently born at Bristol Zoo Gardens by cesarean, which is very controversial but it's adorable and very precious. So far the mother has not taken interest in the baby.

Caesarian? A gorilla? Odd. Everyone knows that Caesar was a chimpanzee!

The reason for delivery was pre-eclampsia: toxemia of pregnancy.

Looks like the delivery was just in the nick of time, too.

I hope her mother will come around. Recovering from a c-section is rough.
