Sorpresa en el zoo de Columbus: un gorila, que los cuidadores creían que era un macho, dio luz a un bebé (CNN) — Los cuidadores del Zoológico y Acuario de Columbus se toparon con una gran sorpresa este jueves por la mañana: un gorila bebé recién nacido y la noticia de que su madre no era el gorila macho que ellos creían que era.El gorila, Sully, ha vivido en las instalaciones con su madre desde 2019 y se pensó que era un macho hasta que “el equipo de cuidado del gorila descubrió que sostenía al inesperado bebé gorila este jueves temprano”, anunció el zoológico en un comunicado de prensa.Pero, ¿cómo pudo ocurrir que los cuidadores no supieran que Sully, de ocho años, en realidad era una hembra? ¿Y que estaba embarazada?Bueno, los gorilas “no tienen órganos sexuales prominentes” y los machos y las hembras se parecen en su mayoría hasta alrededor de los ocho años, explicó el zoológico en el comunicado, señalando que solo más tarde en la vida los machos desarrollan su gran tamaño, espaldas plateadas y protuberancias distintivas en la cabeza.Junto con las características d...
