Description
This mother gorilla represents both the nurturing and the fiercely protective primordial spirit of motherhood. She is based on a real mother gorilla who rescued and protected a 3-year old human child from the other apes after he fell into the gorilla exhibit at Brookfield Zoo near Chicago, in 1996. According to a news article, "Seven gorillas were on display in the exhibit. One of them, Binti, a 7-year-old female with a baby gorilla on her back, picked up the child, cradled him in her arms and placed him near a door where zookeepers could retrieve him."
