The Calgary Zoo's Yewande, a western lowland gorilla, is expecting her first baby.
The 12-year-old is due to give birth in early May, the zoo said in a release Monday. 
"We are cautiously optimistic as this is Yewande's first baby," said Jamie Dorgan, director of animal care. 
"This marks the first gorilla baby in the troop since Kimani's birth in 2016," Dorgan said, noting it will also be the first offspring for Jasiri, the zoo's new male silverback.
