Young Male Gorilla Challenges A Huge Silverback | The Shabani Group

[@kenitchy5022]

Shabani just did the right thing as a silverback.

[@LukishiBrown]

There's nothing natural in this habitat for the gorillas. It is very sad.

[@ForestGirlTeresa]

I noticed a few things. Kiyomasa in hiding, and Shabani’s obvious concern; the fact that the troop didn’t seem annoyed with Shabani (so they did not think it was the big guy’s fault), Annie’s concern for her father, rather than Kiyomasa. Something happened in the basement, and I think Kiyomasa’s injured hand is a part of it. Kiyomasa was foolish to challenge his dad, and despite Shabani’s immediate reaction, he showed restraint in not pursuing and beating up his son. I think Shabani did a good job of establishing order within his family. Thanks to Something About Gorillas for bringing us this patiently compiled and important narrative on the family dynamics.

[@leticiacirio2743]

I was about to write the same thing as you!!! It could have been that Shabani saw Ai or Annie bothering her in the basement, I guess Kiyo went too far with one of them, they are two females and Kiyo has wanted to mate for a long time. Shabani is losing patience with that topic... I think that's what bothers Shabani the most.

[@Kiowa371]

@2btpatch mic drop 🎤 because you nailed it! Something went on in that basement!!! And those two (AI & Nene) are co-signing the foolishness given Kiyo a false sense of power. Shabani will hurt Kiyo and Kiyo knows this, hence, why he runs and hide from Shabani. I’m glad Shabani held back but I’m sure at some point Shabani will get tired and unleash on Kiyo. Kiyo acts like a spoiled brat. Poor Annie, i’m sure she scared. I hate to say it but It’s time for Kiyo to go.

[@sonjavandam1306]

Once again we are going to have to speculate what happened prior, Kiyo knew the females would go after Shabani so he tried to provoke him. He needs a good kick up the ass.

Can the gorrillas hear all that commotion from the people. That would be distressing everyday for the gorillas, not to mention they dont look like they have a lot of space.

[@miman-ck9jv]

It was distressing to me for 20:17 minutes

[@brianreeves2048]

I think space is the big issue I don’t think they give a shit about the tile and grout and sounds lol they don’t scare easy… but in the wild, a big troop will control HUGE swaths of jungle for their territory but this is like, one small feeding/living/sleeping area all in one little confined space… I don’t think they care about the bars and how it looks, I think they couldn’t care less but it’s just they have no SPACE to DO anything y’know.. they’re expected to do ALL their living in an area about half the size of a small shopping center it looks like… 😕 that just ain’t enough they should be in an enclosure with everything they need and at least a square mile of space to roam and live…

​@miman-ck9jv why watch it, I just came to the comments after 5 seconds. Crazy they have to live there!

awful exhibit. No stimulation for the gorillas. They lay on hard surfaces

[@fizzlers444]

The tension is immense! I don't think Kiyo would be so brave if he didnt have the ladies to shield him. Shabani is so restrained and tense but wow when he unleashed! The speed and ferocity. Kiyo is lucky his Dad loves him too much to hurt him....yet. Hopefully they get back on good terms soon. ❤

There really needs to be a bachelor group for all the adolescent male gorillas in the region. Maybe they are working on something?

[@sowhat7472]

It’s about time Shabani put Kiyomasa in his place. Shabani is very patient and kind but Kiyomasa has been acting like he is the silverback. This was bound to happen. Love and peace ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@sonjavandam1306]

Once again I have more questions than answers. Only when Kiyo had the girls on his side did he feel safe enough to taunt his dad. Nene as usual felt she had to admonish Shabani for touching her precious boy. Good girl Annie stay with the father that kept you safe from the attacks you endured as a young girl. It must have been going on for awhile because I've never seen so much 💩 inside..Were all left to speculate again. I love you Shabani, you Rock.😉😜

[@kindafoggy]

More than anything about a lesson in comeuppance, Kiyomasa learned how the alpha male deals with usurpers. Some day soon, he'll be the alpha male in his own troop and this episode will be seared into his memory. Every family has the teen vs. the parent blow up. It's part of severing the apron strings. Next to missing them when they're out of the nest, this is the most painful time in a family that's growing up.

[@sonyawilson1000]

😮 Good heavens...lots of tension here, right? Oh dear, Bani is irritated like 😠 at Kiyo again. They should have put Gentaro, Lope and Kiyomasa together as a bachelor group. Then later on pair them with wives.

[@brenda7758]

Their arms look longer than their legs. I guess bc they walk on them too. I love watching then interact with each other. I have so many questions. Do they go to a vet? Do they get bathed?

[@captaincoffeecake3595]

unfortunately this seems to be a ticking time bomb situation . at some point Shabani WILL put kiyo in his place and that will probably result in serious injury or worse. they really really NEED to move Kiyo.

[@laurenurban3942]

That’s a very patient Silverback. He should have gone up that platform and clobbered the Blackback but he didn’t. When it’s their own they have to fight they seem to be more restrained which, to me, indicates that there is a bond between the two. Very interesting to watch them work out family issues. The females chasing behind the Silverback were like the referees .

[@seanlepley1474]

Tension is thick, like the calm before a prison riot

[@jamiecooksey9037]

They look so happy and content, sitting bored and wandering aimlessly around their concrete playroom. Zoos are a relic of the past, we have the internet and social media now to entertain us. It's so victorian!

[@juliomartinez-pg5pu]

Yeah absolutely terrible, it can clearly see the stressful in gorilas behavior

[@whoisme678]

I was thinking the same thing, where is the bedding they would normally use in the wild? No straw on the floor,? It sounds like Japan, ? Hey Japan, do something about the bedding these animals use to lay on.

[@walliegoolsby5389]

There is suppose to be a basement where they go to bed. I have never seen the basement so I do not know what it looks like. But it is a depressing environment for the gorillas have to live in. No natural environment they are use to. Concrete prison

[@karenthompson8151]

It’s sad to watch but Shabani is doing what he supposed to do. Son it not, he loves his children but he will not be intimidated by his young son. He has to teach him the ways. Kiyo will learn to understand the hierarchy. Kiyo definitely needs to be put in a bachelor group sooner than later. He will be a wonderful father and silverback he learned from the best. This by no means is Shabani fault.

[@Simon-gc6uf]

Annie tries not to pick sides but you can see she stays close to her dad in a supportive way. From what i have observed gorilla's seem to all side with the weaker party to try and balance things out but Kiyo is always annoying Ai and so Ai is always sitting close to Shabani to get some peace but she immediately always picks Kiyo's side whenever there is an altercation with Shabani which i find strange. Shabani really deserves a loving partner.

[@bigboytoyz541]

Same thing with momo and gentaro. These zoo's have left them there too long. Both of these young males should have been separated from their family group before now.

[@R52-e7q]

​@@bigboytoyz541Talk is cheap. Finding a location und funding the construction of an adequate (!) habitat is not. Even if that were given, there's no assurance that a bachelor group would function well (see HJ/Hasani/Jabari (Los Angeles)).

[@lady4vols]

You can tell Shabani loves him, he heat checking on him. He doesn’t like having to discipline him, but he will if need be.

[@elizabethstops2362]

Why doesn't Japan start a young male gorilla group so there won't be this territorial profiling going on with fathers and sons ?

[@ForceFreeTrainergirl06]

Looks like there had already been some sort of altercation if Kiyomasa hurt himself. But at the heart of it all, it's the girls who are the bravest and who wade in and try to prevent anything happening even though it's clear they are very wary of Shabani. I guess Kiyo is starting to mature and so there's not going to be room for the two of them for much longer. In the wild Kiyo would start his own family and troop.

[@thisisme9889]

This is the second time it's happened, that I've seen. The zoos have a Binder with a list and pictures of male gorillas that need a family, mostly blackbacks. Cause this will keep happening and get worse, alot of stress for the gorillas

[@rhcp9009]

I don’t understand why they have to build concrete & bars. At least have a more natural habitat for them. It just blows my mind that at least one, just one, of these apes can’t be released back into the wild somehow, if not the whole group at once. I think they can survive way more than we believe.

[@uhycsak4444]

Their natural environment in the wild is shrinking, and they are being hunted by poachers (illegal hunting) and also not illegal hunting. Its actually a huge problem all over africa.

[@Melancholia-oz1ti]

It's not a matter on whether they can survive on their own in the wild..There wild habitat is no longer safe for these animals. They would not thrive for long.

Kiyo is so spoilt, he will be sulking for weeks now. Its incredible how much wiser gentaro (Momotaro group) is than him Shabani barely touched him and he will sulk.

The problem is that the root of all this (altercation in the basement) was not caught on video. So one does ot know, if Shabani scolded/attacked Kiomasa without cause or acted in reaction to some kind of provocation. Obviously the reaction of troop membes differs: they will scare the silverback off, if his behaviour is willfully aggressive (frustrated Djeeco atacking Riki/Momoko), or stay quiet if it's a (measured) response to a provocation (Momotaro putting Gentaro in his place (2 times caught on video, Genki/Kintaro only slightly reacting the second time). Here Kiyomasa took a glance to the left ("You're with me?" (?)) before confronting Shabani and the troop acted accordingly.

[@lyndamac1058]

That was so intense and it had to boil over but I love how all the ladies surrounded Kiyo and as soon as it broke out, they defended him.

[@sonjavandam1306]

Kiyomasa took advantage of that, that's why he poked Shabani he knew they would go after him.

[@TheFlashyWeasel]

@@sonjavandam1306 Agreed, he did!

[@jeannielindquist3952]

I don't understand why Shabani stops a fight or fights with Kyio and all the ladies attack him. He's the silverback that's what he's supposed to do

[@JoshuaSmith-ev7lm]

[@jor6426]

A perfect example of why these special, captive beings, need sign lanuage, my friends.😊

[@ForestGirlTeresa]

They already display sign language: their hands, their posture, glances and eye contact, their attitude: playfulness or lack of it. There are so many ways gorillas sign their intent.

[@lizzyyork]

Gorillas communicate just fine without sign language.

[@bigboytoyz541]

What they need is a proper breeding program that actually plans the future for these animals ahead of time. Waiting until they are grown and then trying to figure out what to do is a piss poor way of doing things. The future of these beautiful animals should have been mapped out when they were still little. Now Japan has 5 gorillas that need to be moved away from their family group, and they don't have anywhere to put them.

[@jor6426]

Yes. Gorillas first. Instead of our own intent. Simple 20 vocabulary word or signs, would help stimulate them, and communicate better than they are, to each other. They can tell the keepers "where it hurts", whos fault it is, favorite fruit ice, mother, father, love, and "move away from the child". P.S.-my cat knows 4 signs, and 10 words.

Agreed, natural composting with a bio floor , possibly healthier environment. Why are they there 😢

[@PraiseHIMthroughthestorm]

Funny how Kiyo runs when he sees Shabs, but the moment he has his army behind him with General Nene, he’ll start with provoking Shabs. Then let the rest run him. I wonder if something happened to Nene, would Ai continue to guard Kiyo or would he FINALLY have to stand on his own??

[@tora-uae702]

もうキヨマサは家族の群れから離す時期にきていますね。 シャバーニは息子に甘い父親だったと思う。 最近は、京都のモモ一家でも同じようなことがありますが、モモパパはゲンタロウに厳しい父親だと思うし、そのくらいがいい。 アメリカ🇺🇸に住んでた時に見たのは、ご存知かと思いますが、🇺🇸動物園は独身のオスゴリラだけの群れのグループを作って一緒に居て、日本でも動物園が協力し合ってそのような場所を作って若いオス、ゲンタロウやキヨマサ、後にはリキを一緒にすれば良いと考えますけど、日本の動物園はなり行き主義の放置している感しか無いです。 個人の感想ですが、シャバーニが可哀想に感じます😢 考えすぎでしょうか…

Stop it. Nothing happened last time either. Kiyomasa is just spoilt. Shabani barely touches him look at how Momotaro scolds Gentaro compared to this. This is child's play. You don't see Gentaro been a spoilt gorilla

[@thewisepowerchair2369]

​@mmaphilosophy Yes it did. Just not caught on camera; but Kiyomasa cried out. And he hid that time too.

[@777-To-Inspire.]

Not good Kiyomasa trying to claim ownership of the females, Shabani won't like this 😱😨

[@maryharris2629]

Videos show nasty Nene having sex with Kiyomasa since he was a toddler. Several months ago, Shabani attempted to discipline Kiyomasa for mating his sister Annie. Recently, Kiyomasa was attempting to screw his sister Ai, but he stopped when Shabani gave him a look that could kill. Obviously, Shabani & Nene don't like each other. Shabani sees Nene as a troublemaker & Nene sees Shabani as a weak Silverback. Nene & Ai are supposed to be Shabani's wives. But Shabani can't stand Nene & Ai is not interested in sex with Shabani. This zoo needs to remove Kiyomasa & his troop.(Nene & Ai) to avoid a fatality.
