A newborn red-backed bearded snub-nosed monkey at Hongshan Gongwaana

At Hongshan Gongwaana, a warm and interesting "new mom growth story" is unfolding. On August 6, the female monkey Xitao welcomed her baby, and the keeper named it "Xihuan" (Like). Red-backed bearded snub-nosed monkey infants mostly cling to their mother's back, only moving to the chest for nursing or special situations. When Xihuan was just born, new mom Xitao had some difficulties; on the first day, she accidentally pressed Xihuan under her body while leisurely resting on a branch; Xihuan also grabbed the wrong position, holding onto the thigh instead of the mother's abdomen, with its head hanging down. However, after the keeper confirmed that Xihuan was unharmed, they gave the new mother and baby time to adjust. By the second day, they gradually adapted to each other and cooperated more smoothly. In addition, in September, natural friends and Shunbaoxiang Tian brought corn from Baoxiang Tian and also brought many melons. Come to Hongshan Gongwaana to witness this warm moment full of love and growth!
