Annie seems to love her new keeper ｜Shabani Group・Gorilla

Video shooting: April 9, 2024
This is a video from a while ago.
It may be an inaccurate subtitle, but it would be helpful if you could turn on the subtitle（CC→ON）
It was a morning of light rain and strong winds.
After breakfast, Annie was bored and alone when she spotted the keeper patrolling outside.
When the keeper came back inside, Annie kept staring at the keeper who was cleaning the room and seemed to like him very much 😊.
Before lunch, Shabani and Kiyomasa were playing for the first time in about a week, and Shabani and Kiyomasa looked very happy playing after a long time.
Shabani was so excited that she banged on the glass so much that Nene was worried and came to check on her😅.

Nene don’t go hungry at all. When i was there i observed that if they take her food she just moves to another place and finds more food. The zookeepers gives them a lot of food, and they always eat very well.

[@JaspC9]

naughty Shabani & Kio for taking Nene's food 😅 She dont seem to mind, she finds somewhere else to eat. Love Nene

[@random_simon4766]

Watching Shabani and Kiyo have a father-son bonding moment melted my heart. I love gorillas!

[@eagleblack6254]

Nene❤, quando mangia mastica velocemente anche se non ha denti, oppure mentre prende il cibo si guarda sempre dietro, perché ormai sa o il figlio❤ o Shabani❤ glielo levano,poverina non si è mossa di un centimetro per paura. Shabani sta giocando di nuovo con Kiyomasa,ma questa volta lo fa sottolineando che il più forte è lui. Annie❤ aspetta Gentaro❤, non ti innamorare del custode tra voi due non ci potrà mai essere niente!😊🦍❤🦍🍀

[@360Fov]

Poor Nene, food taken straight from her hands and even out of her mouth!

[@sandraphillips1718]

So sad that her food is being taken straight out of her mouth. 😞😞

[@AndreaSalt-or2ki]

I believe the keepers feed her because of this.

[@AustinBunyard]

The keepers sneak her food all the time

[@user-jb8pu5wb9b]

Good morning to the family

[@llinosjarvis2754]

Love this family so much xxx

[@pigtailsandteddybears]

3:31 🤣 Omg Annie. I was not expecting her to go full out squirrely. (Annie's drumming has become my favorite out of the others. Well, aside from Kiyo's head version. Especially when she's sitting. It's so quick but delicate. Melts my heart.❤❤❤) Thanks for the video, JZ!

[@Enthusiastic777]

2:20 poor Nene(

[@bmanbusee3812]

Saw that..😂😂😂

[@annemariemcnamara8756]

You know poor Nene is slow coming out a gets remnants of food a than you have the two males taking it from her. Hope the keepers are still slipping her extra. She has a hearty appetite but that was the first time I saw Shabani do that thought there was a gorilla etiquette 😂

[@ellenknell9645]

2:24 Nene says, "You big brute, just because you're Alph doesn't give you the right to steal my food." 🤣🤣🤣

[@bethammons1239]

Poor old Nene lol

[@glynisakabonniekenzie7664]

The look that Nene gave Shabani when he took her food, I think she wished that he would choke on it. 😂

[@elliotpalais6190]

Its not like he didn't have any food, it surrounded him. 😢

[@irenekopec9892]

watch out gentaro annie has eyes for her new keeper as she seems lovestruck😍💕lol shabani is always so happy to play with kiyo as it really shows 😊

[@A.R.77]

2:00 ~ Of course someone always has to crap right where the door comes down.

[@elliotpalais6190]

That's what I thought too! Of all the places, here's a good spot. I feel for the keepers. I remember years ago at the Phoenix zoo, you could smell the habitat from a long distance away.

[@livieandevie]

If I was a keeper there, I would never get any work done. I wouldn't be able to stop talking with Annie!

[@joegaito702]

We laugh and learn and benefit from the gorillas thanks they are very smart and intelligent animals always learning something new each day from them thanks they make good parents and grandparents god bless you guys thanks you guys rock way to go love you guys thanks stay safe and warm out there !!! Joe 😅😊😊

[@maryharris2629]

9:44 Hopefully, someone looks at Shabani's shoulder, so that it doesn't get infected.

[@flaviablanco8245]

KIYO be nice 👍🏻💙🦍🙏👍🏻 I pray for you my dear friend 🥰

[@ChristineCole-kl4vu]

Stop stealing Nene's food you bullies.lol

[@xxNinjaclanxx-id9rs]

I'm sorry but I'm dying laughing at Kiyo stealing Nene's food literally from her lips! At least he didn't bop her on the head! 😂🤭😆

[@araceliramirez2695]

Amada ,bella , noble familia Shabani ❤❤❤❤❤

[@lm9991]

Nice video! Shabani still looks grumpy to me, but I guess not, or Kyo wouldn't be playing with him. 😍

[@patriciabenjumea5337]

Anni eres hermosa y muy especial🎉❤

[@jguitar23]

Why don't they have some toys??

[@tinman7743]

It's fascinating to watch the Dynamics. Nene seems to surrender her food so easily. Is Nene in good health for her age ?

[@japanesezoo]

Nene has a good appetite and is currently very healthy.

[@Greylock21]

Please give her more. She won't fight those sweet piggies to keep her food. They should be ashamed. I adore this family ❤

[@sylvie2519]

❤To sweet Annie, adorable Nene, Ai, Kiyo and Shabani.

[@IamAdrienne]

Another great video of the Shabani family. Thanks for continuing to share their story!

[@flaviablanco8245]

ANNIE my sweetheart one day love you Gentaro and you 💙🦍🦍🩷👍🏻🙏🙏🙏💯

[@llinosjarvis2754]

Love drone weals uk ❤

[@patriceogrady9763]

Those teeth look huge! Can’t believe they don’t hurt each other!

[@elliotpalais6190]

Pretty sure on one of the videos, they captured Shabani getting bitten. You can see him licking his wounds, i think that's where they get that saying 😉

[@AustinBunyard]

Kiyo playing a good ol game of chase the shabani

[@obappooblada8202]

6:40あたりの腕を枕にしたシャバーニの表情が良いですね😊シャバーニはネネさんの🥒を横取りしていたのが写っていましたが、度々起こる事なのですか？気の毒なネネさん😢そういえばシャバーニ、左腕に怪我があったみたいですね。ゴリラ少女アニーちゃんを大切に💗

[@marysanfilippo4424]

Shabani looks so much like a man, a handsome man.

[@Ringo.2021]

Oh so fressig Sweet the two Kissing 😂❤so love ❤

[@patriciabenjumea5337]

Ese juego de lucha libre entre padre y hijo me pone el corazón a mil latidos😮

[@dorriecoop1932]

Most animals keep there mouth open when playing..it means none aggressive interaction.

[@charlesstockford6003]

Somebody loves the red peppers.

[@williamshepley3923]

Wonder how Shabani got the battle scar? NeNe got no teef but could have been Ai, she's got a mean claw swipe move. Kiyomasa could be responsible most likely as they been scrapping due to spring is in the air 🦍🦍🦍🦍🦍

[@glynisakabonniekenzie7664]

We can rule out Nene with only one tooth and Annie loves her father too much to ever hurt him. Either Kiyo or Ai caused the injury, my money is on Kiyo.

[@Greylock21]

We need a good look at the man of annies dreams please😉☺️💝🙊

[@patriciaplan420]

Pourquoi il n'y a pas de paille dans la pièce ou des couvertures ??

[@catherinex7581]

Hahaha il pique toutes les tomates 😂😂😂😂😂

[@bethammons1239]

Poor Nene! She always seems to get picked on 😢❤❤❤❤❤

[@grokeffer6226]

🦍🦍🦍❤❤❤

[@ZombieQueen819]

Kiyomasa looks to be just as tall as Shabani now not as muscular, but the height cause when they were sitting there playing he’s only like an inch or two smaller in height, only not muscles😊😊😊😊

[@user-qt1kj6wg4o]

Don't take Nene's food

[@VA4LVRS]

Shabani is like I’m tired of u not listening so I’m taking your food, he grabbed her😮 kiyo probably just trying to prove something

[@sandraphillips1718]

Hope the zoo keepers give her extra food.😒

[@japanesezoo]

Every day, Nene is fed by her keepers in secret from the other gorillas😊

[@glynisakabonniekenzie7664]

When the troop goes indoors for lunch they all enter the door and turn right, when Nene enters the door she turns left, the keepers are there waiting to feed Nene all the tasty treats that she may have missed out on. 🙋‍♀️🦍🇬🇧

[@user-sj9py2ff6l]

Tem q ir Kioto namorar c Gentaro ❤❤❤❤

[@muriel7100]

😅❤

[@CherokeeJackson]

I wonder why gorillas open their mouths when they are playing?

[@Ultimate_Sin-ry9iw]

2:20 not cool Shabani!

[@marixegarcia7548]

Amores mio un besito muy grande os ador

[@theresam.1899]

Kiyomasa is so tiny next to Shabani I think he is only 11.5 years old.

[@Bella_Rose.2023]

I think Shabani was only 10 when he was given he was put with NeNe and Ai, and another female.

[@user-sj9py2ff6l]

Ta ferido!!!!

[@jimsterling9930]

The zoo such get these gorillas some mats to sit and lay on. Not the concrete floor. That pisses me off so much. They deserve better treatment. I mean they took them from their home and I don’t think the jungle floor is made out of concrete.

[@Bella_Rose.2023]

Look up their old enclosure, take a look at that one

[@rachelle7772]

Ugh, I feel sorry for Nene they all always take her food its no wonder she is always looking over her shoulder, I thought it was just paranoia, but I guess I was wrong stop bullying her so she can relax

[@luvmyaussie9561]

Gorilla like to lat and sleep in foliage- lits of it, so they can make fresh beds regularly. These poor beings are surrounded with mostly concrete. Just terrible.
