About BAR-14-01

BAR-14-01 was a male Western Lowland Gorilla who died on March 12, 2014. He lived only five days after his birth on March 7, 2014.

Born at Parc Zoològic de Barcelona, he was captive-born to parents Makena and Xebo. His brief life began and ended at the same zoo where he was born.

The young gorilla’s death occurred just days after birth, though the specific cause remains undocumented. His short existence represents one of the challenges faced in gorilla breeding programs, where infant mortality can occur despite the best care efforts.
