When Pongo, the Orangutan at the Atlanta Zoo, was born by C-section last year, she was kept from her mom for several weeks while Blaze healed. After she was fully healed, the staff began slow introductions of mother-daughter to reunite them, hoping that Blaze accepted Pongo. They started by putting the baby on the other side of the cage door so Blaze could see her and listen to Pongo vocalize. Eventually, Blaze started showing interest and was touching Pongo, responded to her vocalizations which led to them having brief sessions together. They fully reunited after a few weeks of reintroduction and are fully bonded today. I wonder if the same thing happens with this mom and baby.

Yes she would be Beauty's niece. Stammy (her dad) is a son of Dorothy and Ernie (E1). So Dorothy would be her grandma on that side & then on mom's side - Strike (her mom) is daughter of SW (Southwest at Cleveland) and the late Buckeye. So super genes on both sides, sure hope she can hold the site. She's a 2013 hatch - assuming it is Diva - so she's young.
Combination Dorothy and Erie, SW and Buckeye would make for really good genes! Hope it's her!
