The Active Citizen project has begun vote,The participants will choose a name for the new inhabitant of the Moscow Zoo – a baby western lowland gorilla listed in the Red Book.
The little male was born in early February. His parents, a pair of gorillas Kira and Vizuri, are taking care of him with great care. Although the female holds the baby in her arms all the time, she sometimes allows other family members to come up and gently pet him. Visitors to the Moscow Zoo can see the baby in the Primates pavilion.
In the wild, these animals live in mangrove thickets, mountainous and tropical forests of Equatorial Africa. Therefore, experts have proposed options that reflect the connection of this species of primates with their homeland. Four of the five names begin with the letter K – this is a kind of tribute to mother Kira.
So, the baby can be called Quito. This is a city in Angola, where a stable population of western lowland gorillas still exists. Another name – Kuango – refers to the name of a river in the Congo basin. This is one of the regions where the primates live.
A small male can also be named Kwanzaa. In African American culture, this is the name of the holiday honoring the first fruits of the harvest. Another option is Kijani. In Swahili, this means “green,” which is associated with nature, growth, and fertility. Zuberi translates as “strong” or “mighty.” This name is usually given to boys.
The voting was prepared by the capital Department of Culture and the project “Active Citizen”Its users have already chosen names for many animals, including the Malayan bears Masha, Luchik and Zvezdochka, the alpaca Zephyr, the hyena Akela, the panda Katyusha and the tiger Amur.
