Gorillas have an intruder. An injured pigeon. This is a #shorts preview of tomorrow's ( 31st July 2023) video. The GoBros found a pigeon at the bottom of their enclosure and weren't sure what to do with it. The pigeon injured itself flying in and couldn't get back out again. Shufai beats his chest at the bird whereas his older brother Gorilla Lope touches it gently and smells his finger.
Just so you know before you watch the video tomorrow. I will cut the scenes out that were too difficult to watch, especially when Shufai was shoving the bird. He wasn't trying to trying to injure the pigeon, he just didn't know what to think about the situation or how to handle it. The staff knew about the pigeon but unfortunately seem to be unable to help or remove the pigeon. My guess would be that it was because they had trouble getting Lope in at lunchtime, they did try but he just didn't want to go inside.
The pigeon was still alive and walking fine by the time I left in the late afternoon, but to be totally honest, as the pigeon injured its wings flying into the enclosure and then getting shoved, even if they did manage to remove the bird, I don't think it would have survived.
I'm often unsure whether to show some videos or not, but it always has been my belief it's crucial to present all aspects of animal behaviour, not just the favourable ones. By observing their conduct in diverse situations, we gain insights into these remarkable creatures. Although at times, it may be difficult to witness, it reflects the realities of the natural world, encompassing both positive and challenging moments. Through these observations, we acquire valuable insights into gorillas and their intricate social dynamics.
