Pierre and Eliane Thivillon are the founders of the wildlife park at Saint-Martin La Plaine in France. They are in charge of several thousand square metres of land that is home to more than 850 animals.
But their lives changed dramatically on 27 October 1998.
In 1998, Pamela, a female gorilla, gave birth to the little Digit, whom she refused to feed. Pierre and Eliane decided to separate Digit from her mother and to bottle-feed her. And so they became her adoptive parents. However, in 2003, the scenario was repeated when Digit’s little brother Gincko was born.
Pierre and Eliane now have two gorillas in their home.
