Kiyomasa is jealous that Shabani took Annie. Shabani family before breakfast Gorilla

Shabani family before breakfast
Annie was playing with Chiomasa, but Shabani also wanted to play with her, but Chiomasa saw her and got jealous and got angry.
But after that, we were able to see Shabani and Kiyomasa chasing each other for the first time in a while, which was a relief 😊.

Poor Annie is still looking like Twiggy. Get well, sweetie.☺❤

Shabani loves Annie more than any other gorilla. Shabani raised her and was and still is her protector !

[@yukari2617]

It was funny to watch them display at each other with the ropes in their mouths. Clearly, Shabani and Kiyomasa both are still upset with each other and frustrated because they want to play but also want to fight. There was a lot of posturing there. They know they can't fight because Shabani knows he'll get in trouble with his wives and Kiyomasa is too afraid to. Ai and Nene have to stop empowering Kiyomasa when Shabani is trying to discipline him.

[@stevemorris6790]

I agree completely with you . People that are saying poor kiyomasa don’t know gorilla society rules!

[@yukari2617]

Shabani is the most tolerant father. Any other silverback would have smacked his son.

[@Kiburi435]

I think for Kyiomasa is Annie no sister more rather his girl oh no he is jealous 😱😨

[@evo2542]

i really doubt this

[@Jabali2020]

@@evo2542 isso he fucks already Annie and Ai make eyes on 🙄

[@TheFlashyWeasel]

Annie and Kiyo would make the perfect couple-IF they weren't related!

[@glynisakabonniekenzie7664]

I love the way they walk with their arms around each other. They have done this since they were toddlers. 🙋‍♀️🦍🇬🇧

[@eagleblack6254]

Kiyomasa come sempre sta provocando suo papà, fanno gli indifferenti ma si scrutano a vicenda!❤️🍀❤️

[@claudiadossantosfernandes1094]

Annie ainda está tão magrinha🥰❤❤❤

[@koookimama]

朝イチで、こんなに楽しそうな姿がみれたとは！！！ 羨ましいです✨✨✨ シャバーニ一家は、元の姿に戻りましたね😊 昨日は、お昼ごはんのあと アニーちゃんは一人お外に。 あー、パパも兄の相手も疲れるわぁ状態だったかな😂

No Shabani an Kiyomasa we’re just being playful. Kiyomasa is very close to Annie an not sure what Shabani was doing to Annie but Kiyomasa is protective. Kiyomasa is entering adulthood an feeling his oats an Shabani is the Silverback it’s going to be normal that there is challenging an as silverback he has to assert his authority it’s gorilla behavior. There gorillas not human stop attributing human behavior an thought process they are simply behaving like there supposed to.

[@stevemorris6790]

Exactly ! And besides Shabani always loved Annie since she was a baby and he’s her protector so nobody would “ protect “ Annie as much Shabani did and still does . Check Annie and Shabani story as Annie was raised by Shabani

[@WahranRai]

Shabani shouldn't be left hanging around Annie. His brother Haoto has mated with his daughter Momoka !

[@violetnewell5076]

I agree,I think that's why the family was at war the other day.her brother is on the look out for her.

[@Kiburi435]

Yes right oh no 😱

[@watchingnwaiting5264]

Kiyomasa has mated with Annie several times in the past year. He's jealous.

[@thesussexbunion]

Are they allowing this to happen to keep the bloodlines "pure" and provide an outcross, regardless of consequences?

[@evo2542]

For animals, it is instinctual if you can't find a mate, then you must resort to mating with siblings. For animals they would PREFER to mate outside the family but if they do not have access then it is NATURAL for ANIMALS to mate with siblings. Why? Because a generation of incest isn't too big a deal. It's when you get multiple ones, then the babies become more sickly with more recessive traits. One generation isn't THAT MUCH of a risk. It is difficult to separate human's reactions to this, and the animals. You must remind yourself they are a different species, and think more on instinct than humans might.

[@violetnewell5076]

Shabani is trying to mate with Annie,big brother is protecting her

[@stevemorris6790]

No Shabani was not trying to mate with Annie or Kiyo was protecting her . Annie was and is loved by Shabani since she was a baby and he’s her protector!

[@marykelly2409]

Aren't the. zoo keepers watching what's going on with dad and daughter? Incest is in plain sight. It does happen in the gorilla world. Annie is losing weight due to stress which could be due to her father's mating with her. Now, the brother wants to mate with Annie too. This is very very concerning. Action has to be taken right away before Shabani and their son fight. dominance over Annie. Please, please take immediate action. 🙏😪

[@watchingnwaiting5264]

The brother already _has_ mated with Annie.

[@stevemorris6790]

Shabani always love Annie since she was a baby. Therefore yes he would be jealous of her without mating!
