Giant Male Gorilla Doesn't Obey Keeper's Directions | Shabani

[@juliajohnson5276]

Shabani is a man of principles. He doesn’t want to go out the back door, he wants to go out the front door. Stand your ground, Shabani.😘💪🏻❤️🇺🇸

[@stevemorris6790]

Right on!

[@motolomalatse8641]

Yes!

[@CyCyCat]

Super intelligent to go backwards down the slope. Gorillas ROCK!!! Shabani is AWESOME! ❤

I love how his son walks upright lol. Its so cute the way his body wiggles with his feet movemont!

[@artyfhartie2269]

I walk like this too when people look at me

[@lydiemeuer5514]

Ich finde es richtig Shabani macht was er für richtig hält. Er ist ein toller Silverback und ich fand schön das seine Familie bei ihm geblieben ist. Eine wunderbare Familie mit dem besten Silverback und guten Vater.

[@stevemorris6790]

Exactly!

[@cindyoconnell2471]

I find it interesting that these gorillas walk on two legs more than some other gorillas I watch-Kintaro, Genki, etc. It is cool to watch! What amazing creatures!

[@bettythompson7177]

I love watching them… They’re fascinating species of animals to watch!

[@cindyoconnell2471]

@Ana Arteaga I think you are right-they learn from the other gorillas around them!

[@penelopelopez8296]

I’ve seen videos of Genki holding Kintero on her side with her right arm while she’s running on two legs trying to get to the food pile before the two large males take everything. Genki is amazing. Go check out “Louis” the silverback gorilla….he does a lot of bi-pedal walking because he doesn’t like to get his hands and food dirty. He’s actually kinda cute, Louis the Silverback…check him out.

[@cnj2328]

I think they are mimicking us.

[@yvonnejones9940]

I've noticed the same thing and have commented on it. Seems a lot of captive gorillas are bipedal walking and running. Seems to be global. Look up Oumbi, Lope, Shufai, Ambam, Kintaro---This is a partial list.

[@mooncakerabbithender7203]

I wonder why Shabani did not want to go outside. Poor Nene gets a shove for minding her own business. I adore seeing them upright walk. they waddle like penguins.

[@dulciemidwinter1925]

I think they are creatures of habit. I have no idea why people attach human labels to them calling them 'husbands and wives' it's totally silly. They are animals, wonderful though they are they are still animals. Most animals are initially wary of a change in location or routine. He will be fine once he is used to it.

[@Kissameassa538]

Kiyomasa is just like Shabani in looks and mannerisms. Wonderful to watch them 🦍❤️🇬🇧

Kiyomasa is 9years old. I think he is bigger than Gentaro🦍

Is Shabani cautious since you had a big earthquake there yesterday night?

[@SomethingAboutGorillas]

Japan was not affected by the recent earthquake.

[@Kivalt]

If I was that huge, I wouldn't obey anyone either.

[@mae8861]

I like how the caretakers place food in different locations so the gorillas have to look for their food.

[@Renwoxing13]

So do I but it is sad because the gorillas already know where to look 9 X out of 10 ! Either they always hide them in the spots or else the routine is so old that the gorillas have it cracked as to where food is likely to be.

[@cathyt144]

They probably change it up for enrichment exercises and to challenge them so they dont get bored. They prob have games for them too and various toys to change around. I bet the primate behaviorists have their entire days mapped out full of activities. Theyre prob taken better care of than most humans we know.

[@ryanruiz9458]

This enclosure looks exactly like the pods in a state penitentiary.

[@karmakameleon113]

Nah, the gorilla pod has floor-to-ceiling windows with lots of natural light coming in and a view of an area that's alive and green. Humans don't get that luxury in their pods (not that I've seen, anyway).

The wonders of nature; there is not much nutrition in foliage so the gorilla has bacteria in its intestines that provides the protein for the gorilla to live. It would not be good if carnivores were to start eating plants as the lack of protein would kill them.

They are all captive born except NeNe. They would not survive for long. NeNe is old and weak and prime target, and then the kids. In a perfect world, there would be no zoos, and they could live wild. But not after a life with maids, and bulters catering to you lollo

[@dooley8746]

Worldwide almost all gorillas in zoos were born into captivity. Every once in awhile a zoo will take in a gorilla if possible that got rescued from poachers or illegal research labs, but most of the time poachers have numerous gorillas held captive and those gorillas, instead of going to a zoo once rescued, get a separate habitat made for them that's like a halfway house between a zoo and being in the wild because they have special needs beyond what either captive or wild gorillas would have due to abuse and possible malnourishment. Those habitats aren't normally open to visitors like a zoo, but rather focus on nursing the gorillas back to health. And what you are seeing in this channel's videos is just the caretaker building of this zoo's gorilla habitat. The gorillas have a huge outdoor area all to themselves. But funnily enough this family of gorillas chose the basement of the caretaker building to sleep in, rather than outside. Zoo gorillas usually sleep outside, as they would in the wild. This zoo originally planned for these gorillas to nest outside like normal gorillas, but this particular gorilla family preferred the basement of the caretaker building over sleeping outside. So the caretakers eventually chose to adapt the building to make the gorillas happy, instead of constantly having to drive them out every night because the gorillas refused to leave. So the gorillas sleep in the basement and they eat upstairs. The door is left open in case they ever change their mind, but so far they prefer the basement. The gorillas do spend the rest of their waking hours in the outside portion of their habitat, which this channel never shows because it's a caretaker filming and caretakers aren't allowed to just roam the outside portion of the gorilla habitat as they please, because that's the gorilla's area. So in other words, these gorillas rather like the cement caretaker building, so much so that they took it over.
