Hand-raised gorilla Kaius reunited with primate family at Mogo Wildlife Park
Summary by Ground News
Chad Staples became the surrogate father of Kaius the gorilla after complications with the mother at birth at the wildlife park in south-east NSW. Kaius developed sepsis pneumonia just hours after being born. The young gorilla moved into Mr Staples' bedroom while on life support, and the pair were inseparable for the next seven months. The two gorillas have become acquaintances through their neighbouring cages over the past few months.
