This young baby baboon nursing ... as it hung on to its Mother... was one of my favorite moments in South Africa earlier this month.

Klammerreflex

I searched that originally and only got German things, so I figured we just hand another term for it and just googled "baby grip finger reflex" and that got me the term we use.

Whoops! I realize I linked the wrong wiki! My quote was from your Moro reflex link.

I like when I remember to check other countries' wiki pages, I always forget they are all different since they're community made and not just software translations.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmar_grasp_reflex does not have a German translation.

    The term Klammerreflex is the correct term here; German wikipedia just doesn't have an article for it.

    Knowing wikipedia in at least one other language gives a lot of perspective. Some language-based communities are so small that most articles get hijacked by a few people with a particular agenda. Not German though, no complaints there.
