Mshindi in Gorilla World

There's a new male silverback gorilla in town. Mshindi, a 29-year-old Western Lowland Silverback Gorilla, is now at the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden's outdoor Gorilla World habitat. He came to Cincinnati by way of the Louisville Zoo; he was specifically chosen to come to Cincinnati based on "genetics, personalities and social needs," according to a news release from the zoo. Another male gorilla was chosen to lead Mshindi's family group in Louisville, the release said, so Mshindi was sent to Cincinnati.
