Fate of gorilla baby uncertain

A baby gorilla born at Prague’s Troja Zoo this week and rejected by its mother remains in an incubator. Vets say it is not in immediate danger but are concerned about its fate if its mother persistently refuses to care for it. Keepers say they will make another effort to get the sixteen-year-old western lowland gorilla to accept her first young, despite the fact that it could put the life of the baby at risk. So far the facility has raised three gorillas born there since 2004.
