Gorilla is born by caesarean section – level 1
27-09-2023 15:00
This news is from a zoo. The zoo is in England. A gorilla is pregnant. She has problems. People must take out the baby. They carry out the caesarean section.
The baby is fine. She is a girl. She is one kilogram heavy. She hasn’t got a name yet, but she already likes her mother. She is quite emotional.
No animal doctor does the caesarean section. A doctor for humans does it. He says that gorillas are like humans.
Difficult words: pregnant (with a baby inside the belly), carry out (to do), caesarean section (when you open a mother’s belly and take out the baby).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
What similarities does the doctor see between humans and gorillas in relation to the caesarean section?
