In this article, we’d like to show you a sweet picture of a baby gorilla cuddling with its rescuers. It is clear from their endearing friendship that there are no restrictions on love.

When he was just a few weeks old, Bobga the gorilla was transported to the Limbe Wildlife Centre, an African wildlife sanctuary. When poachers killed his family, he was sold as a pet on the black market. Although his chances of survival were slim, he was found in time and given expert care in the facility’s nursery.

Because of unpleasant events in the past, Bob had little faith in others. He met Alvin Muma, a volunteer at the Limbe institution, and everything changed for him. He soon fell in love with Alvin and realized that people might also be wonderful. Alvin did everything he could to make Bobga feel at peace and happy, but nothing could ever compare to the love of a family.
