Saving Mokolo's Heart: Fighting Heart Disease in Gorillas!

Описание: Meet Mokolo, a 38-year-old silverback gorilla at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo, who has been living with heart disease for years. In this video, we’ll explore the innovative ways the zoo’s team manages his health, from a high-fiber, low-starch diet to voluntary training sessions for awake ultrasounds.
