Japanese zookeepers did not perceive how Momo, a 12-year-old white-handed gibbon, managed to get pregnant when there have been no boy monkeys within the cage. After they carried out a DNA check on her child, they realized the daddy was Itō, a 34-year-old agile gibbon, who lives in an adjoining enclosure.

“Agile” seems to be an apt description for wily Itō: “The zoo instructed CNN on Friday it believed that Momo and Itō had managed to mate by means of a small gap in a metal plate between their enclosures. The opening measured about 9 millimeters (0.3 inch) in diameter.”

The lesson right here: the place there is a willy, there is a means.

The newborn has not but been named. I counsel “Glory.”
