Young Female Gorilla longs to touch the Silverback | Monta & Momoka | Chiba Zoo

May 2026. It was the afternoon of the day when the pairing of Monta and Momoka was unveiled to the public. As time has passed, Momoka, the female, seems to have become better at maintaining the right distance from Monta. If Momoka gets too close, Monta walks away. However, Monta looks very relaxed and doesn’t seem to mind Momoka. Starting May 28, Monta and Momoka will begin living together in the outdoor area on a permanent basis. Whether Monta accepts Momoka and opens his heart to her will be the key challenge moving forward.
