The National Zoo in Washington welcomed an adorable baby gorilla on Saturday morning, and visitors may be able to catch a glimpse of the baby, who has not yet been named, as soon as Tuesday, according to Smithsonian's National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute.
The infant is a western lowland gorilla, which is a critically endangered species.
Mom Calaya, 20, has been nursing the baby, the zoo said. Animal care staff say the infant has been clinging closely to its mother.

A single moment captured by an Army photographer became the most enduring image of America's greatest military operation.
