Donguri has made this strange vocalisation several times. It is barely audible the second time after about 28 seconds. In this video she is calling to Momiji who is in a separate enclosure with her 3 babies. She is Momiji's mother and the great grandmother of Ayu's baby, Macaroni. Momiji is looking after Ayu's baby because (I was told) Ayu did not produce any milk. In the wild Donguri would have access to her grandchildren and great grandchild, and this might have been upsetting her that she could not get to them. She also got very upset when a film crew entered Momiji's enclosure and Momiji became very stressed. Today (August 27, 2013) Donguri made the same call when she hurried over to Toku's enclosure where he is with Hinase. She has been rubbing her morillo and marking and urinating so I don't know if she is coming into oestrus.
