August 2023. Taken at the Ueno Zoo, Tokyo.
Haoko, a silverback gorilla, is Shabani's older brother.
He forms a herd at the Ueno Zoo in Tokyo and has four offspring with a female named Momoko.
The youngest daughter Sumomo, born a year and three months ago, completed her artificial nursing period and joined Haoko's herd in March of this year.
Her mother Momoko was also concerned about anemia after giving birth, but now she looks very healthy.

And recently, a tumor was found in the neck of Momoka, the second daughter, and the zoo performed surgery to remove her tumor.
The surgery was a success and Momoka is doing very well.

On this day, Riki and Momoka invite Sumomo, an infant gorilla, to play with them, but Sumomo does not want to play with them.
Especially when Riki invites her to play, she very reluctantly rejects him.
I felt a little sorry for Riki.

Sumomo seems to want to spend time with Auntie Toto. Toto was also taking care of her, including giving Sumomo a piggyback ride.

Haoko was sleeping indoors most of the day due to the heat.
Momoko seemed to like to spend time outside, so she and Komomo spent time together outside.
