The Newest, Cutest Baby Animals from the World's Zoos & Aquariums
The Artis Zoo in Amsterdam, Netherlands welcomed a tiny baby gorilla just over one week ago. The infant, whose sex and name have yet to be determined, is under the close care of her experienced mother, Shindy. The expressive young gorilla is a huge hit with zoo visitors, and so far with the other gorillas in Artis' troupe as well.

They are all beautiful, amazing photos but that last one – mom Shindy looks like she’s smiling!!
Aww, look at those toothless pink gums! I wonder when infant gorillas cut their first teeth?
It’s a boy, his name is Shambe (meaning “leader”)!
