Capybaras and gorillas began to enter outdoor enclosures at the Moscow Zoo

In the Moscow Zoo, capybaras and lowland gorillas began to go out for street walks. This was reported in the zoo's Telegram channel on Thursday, April 2.

It is noted that the male Vizuri is the first to bypass the territory of the gorillas, followed by the rest of the group.

"The other day, the whole family took a full—fledged exercise: zoologists scattered dried fruits in the aviary, and the primates enthusiastically collected treats," the Moscow City News agency quoted the message.

Baby Kvito, who is just over a year old, spent a walk on Kira's mom's back.

"So far, he mainly eats mother's milk, but at the same time he begins to try "adult" food," the message says.

Svetlana Akulova, director of the zoo, said that capybaras originate from South America and are very fond of warmth, so their going outside has become a symbol of the beginning of a real spring. For two animals, Simka and Verty, who were born in autumn, this spring was the first in their lives. 360.ru .
