A mother chimpanzee hugged her newborn for the first time 14 hours after undergoing a caesarean section, heartwarming footage shows.

Just over two years ago, Mahale gave birth to her son Kucheza, who passed away at just five weeks old due to an accidental injury. Mahale had previously delivered an infant via C-section, so another surgical delivery was prescribed to reduce the risks sometimes associated with natural births after C-sections.
