Motherhood
Chewie the gibbon and one of her baby girls. The 18-month-old twins, Sumara and Mei (I don't know which one this is), can already climb and swing about as well as their mama, but they'll keep nursing for another 6 months.
Twins are extremely rare for an ape of any species. According to a zoo curator, there are only three other sets of captive-born gibbon twins on record!
