The youngest gelada was born on the 16th of November 2021.

The team confirms the gender only after some time.

The gestation period is 6 month and the mother breast-feeds the newborn for 1.5-2 years.

Geladas are the only species of primate in which the young can drink from both breasts at the same time, because the nipples are so close together.

Geladas have been kept at Tierpark Berlin since 1992.
