‘Bring on the babies! The Dallas Zoo has revealed the latest addition to its menagerie — a newborn gorilla.

The zoo showed off the as-yet-unnamed baby Western lowland gorilla in an endearing video, posting it just one week after its 13-year-old mom, Megan, gave birth on March 7.’

‘In the video, Megan can be seen cradling the infant gorilla in her arms, playing with its tiny limbs and cuddling it tightly to her chest as she walks around — behaviors frequently displayed by human parents with new babies.

Megan also proves herself to be a multitasking mom as she carries her baby in one arm and a bale of hay in the other. Silverback gorilla Subira, the newborn's father, can be seen in the video, as well.

The baby gorilla is said to be active and nursing often.’
