Huge Male Gorilla Slaps His Son's Back So Hard! | The Shabani Group | Silverback

#Gorilla #Shabani #Kiyomasa
July 2023.
Higashiyama Zoo is getting very hot. It is already midsummer.
In such heat, Shabani's son Kiyomasa and daughter Annie were playing hard.
Shabani was watching them near them.
After a short while, Perhaps Shabani saw the pained expression on daughter Annie's face, Shabani suddenly ran up to son Kiyomasa and slapped him as hard as she could on his back.
Kiyomasa was not satisfied and protested against Shabani by beating his chest, but Shabani was chasing him around.
Seeing the commotion, the chimpanzees in the neighborhood got excited and made a commotion.
Yotsuba, a baby chimpanzee, was especially happy to see the large Shabani dashing around.
Shabani seems to be the center of everyone's attention.

Shabani's had enough. Even Nene and Ai didnt protest like they normally would. The chimps cheering on like they are at a boxing match 😂😂

[@JTCT371]

I love these videos. Silverbacks have so much personality. Funny animals, especially when theyre standing up walking around. Its hilarious.

[@Dimples_2]

Not the chimps instigating the fight 😂 and Shabani is so fun and cool

[@sonjavandam1306]

Those chimps go crazy when something happens in the gorilla enclosure, Shabani didn't lash out at Kiyo, but it's still tense ATM. Shabani rocks.💛✨

[@klmoll]

I think that was a soft warning.

[@e_z_livn]

Yep the chimps are always enthused and excited at any sense of violence..how some believe they're pets I'm sure I don't know

[@jonathanjacobs8989]

Shabani says no more relations with your sister Kiyo! 😂

[@connieklopf5207]

It does seem like he says times up, that's enough!

[@KathyJo.]

It would seem, Shabani has little patience with his Son today……..I love how the Neighborhood Monkeys Cheer on the Mayhem 😅😂

[@user-ep3hs3qc7x]

02:30 アニーちゃん、カンフーしてるみたいでカッコいい🎉😊

[@stevemorris6790]

You are right. It is so funny

[@noranalu5669]

Love Love Shabani.

[@sandraphillips1718]

Nene gets out of the way from everyone so she won't get smacked.😊

[@ZombieQueen819]

Just to make you smile 😃,, the chimpanzee’s was saying that’s right Shabani it’s about time you show Kiyomasa who the boss really is you go big guy 😂😂😂😂😂

[@serenityb5816]

These are Gorillas, not Chimpanzees.

[@teijaflink2226]

Good he does that, he needs to put Kiyo on his place at least as long as he still lives with his parents.

[@ZombieQueen819]

@@teijaflink2226 Thank you yes he does.

[@juliadoherty83]

I love the chimpanzees watching and getting very excited about proceedings that are unfolding next door. The equivalent of putting a glass to the wall to listen to your next door neighbours arguing. If you live in a semi-detached or terraced home. Fabulously human like.

[@troycote4503]

When is this zoo going to do whats right and get Kiyo a proper home?

[@PozitivMC]

2:51 haha, that was a real takedown!!!😎👍

[@phil669]

Shabani still loves to play , that's all. Unlike the serious Momotaro.

[@lizzyyork]

Kiyo and Gentaro would really benefit and learn alot by living together. It's sad these zoo's won't do what's best for them.

[@ellenknell9645]

Amen!

[@chicachuqueen]

They probably are making plans and they are just in the process of finding a new good zoo home for him which isn't easy. Especially if Genaro can't get along with the other gorillas then the keepers will find a spot for him even if he has to travel across the world to another zoo then they will do that but transferring animals isn't a walk in the park either because animals are very fragile mentally and physically plus transferring wild animals is very massive and dangerous process for all parties. That's why I always send my condolences to the keepers because they have to go through and do a lot of labor, risk their lives and learn a lot about animal biology and psychology in order to keep these gorgeous creatures alive.

[@e_z_livn]

Exactly...I can't imagine the hard work and endless time and dedication involved in the care of these regal animals.

[@seasonsofphilly1993]

@lizzyyork So true. If Japan's zoos would become part of the Species Survival Program that we see in America and Europe, the transfer of animals would be easier to facilitate. But, when it comes to Gentaro, he is owned by the Chiba Zoo, and that is a big part of the hold up in getting him moved.

[@stevemorris6790]

@@chicachuqueen I don’t think that Japan zoos are a part of the species survival program by acredited zoos , plain of zoos don’t like the way japan zoos do with their animals. Exemple the numbers counting that Gentaro and Kintaro do.

[@nadinelemeur1939]

Quelle splendeur ce shabani ❤ papa au top il voit tout 😂. Annie est mignonne comme tout ❤ . Je pose une question ici me la pose depuis longtemps es que Annie et gentaro le fils de momotaro pourrait former un couple un jour ??? ❤❤❤

[@justbreathe_]

Kiyomasa and Annie playing is always funny. After Lope and Biddy, they are my favorite duo 😂

[@HerrStaale]

More like flirting

[@pigtailsandteddybears]

Does anyone know what Shabani's head wobble on the ground is? It kills me every time he (and the others, like Kiyo does here) do it! It's just hysterically cute.❤

[@klmoll]

I love it too. And his brushing his hands over his head as he leans down. I think it’s just a thing he does and now Kiyo does it too, including holding ropes in his mouth like Shabani. Kiyo sees it as Silverback behavior. I’ve not seen it with the other four families I watch.

[@phil669]

It's just play behavior , he's having fun.

[@lemardyc]

Those chimps, the neighbours you hate to have

[@motolomalatse8641]

My thoughts exactly😂

[@rebeccayates6398]

Amen you would definitely need to invest in ear plugs 😂😂😊

[@lemardyc]

@@rebeccayates6398 They're nosy

[@juliajohnson6022]

Does anybody know if Haoko and Shabani are brothers? That’s what somebody said.❤️🇺🇸

[@tyeishamcbride7127]

Yes that’s true they are indeed brothers 😊

[@juliajohnson6022]

@@tyeishamcbride7127 , and they have such different personalities. Haoko is very laid back, whereas Shabani is always up for doing devilish things. You can see it in his eyes. Love them both.❤️🇺🇸

[@LadyChelleish]

Two great brothers both are good fathers and husbands love them both Love Big Momotaro too but he’s bossy like his mama Momoko they both so serious

[@karenpuckett1536]

Yes

[@ellenknell9645]

SAG, this was hilarious. Annie and Kiyo playing so freely. They were all just doing their thing. I don't know why but it's so funny when a gorilla slaps another one, usually it's on the back. Sometimes it's so hard it echos for a half mile.🤣I don't want them to feel pain, but it's funny. Then the chimps are up on their tower just cheering on what could turn into a possible fight. Jumping up and down. This whole video was hilarious. Great video.🤣💕

[@PraiseHIMthroughthestorm]

I think Shabani may have looked a little surprised that no one came after him. It looks like he checks to see where each one is at after the monkeys start “heckling”😂. Like what? Everybody gonna leave me alone today after I smacked & chased the golden boy?!!! 🤣😂❤️🦍❤️

[@paulagola2307]

Look at that big hunk of a gorilla ❤ love Shabani

[@juliecaissie6530]

Wow hes a beautiful beast and funny to!

[@chimpchimp9421]

poor Kiyomasa😅

[@stevemorris6790]

It was long due! Kiyo has been very bad, sex with the females, no respect to his dad etc etc. Shabani is and was a very patient silverback.

[@rr-fu6mn]

Beautiful video thank you so much

[@SomethingAboutGorillas]

thank you for your kind comment.☺️

[@kenyettajarrell220]

I love the yard. Allso it's awesome they have a beautiful house and yard

[@juliecaissie6530]

Wow those are hard slaps omg!

[@PozitivMC]

So why did he slap his son? They were just playing!

[@teijaflink2226]

I'm just guessing though but maybe to show who's the boss and to not get too close with the females, though I'm not sure if Kiyo is mature yet but he's definitely a "teenager".

[@HankandLouie]

The chimp peanut gallery 😝

[@motolomalatse8641]

😂😂

[@AlinaWhitfield0510]

Shabani enough 😂😂

[@ballsdeepp6506]

You got the bonobos next door instigating shabani and his son😂

[@sonjavandam1306]

I think they might be the chimps going crazy, bonobos are quiet primates.

[@mchevre]

Nah those look like chimpanzees not bonobos. They are extremely similar though.

[@inezandrade106]

Não, porque o Gentaro pertence ao zoológico de Kioto-Japão. Acredito que um gorila não pode sair do seu local de origem.

[@Klapback]

I ❤ gorilla butts, it looks like they’re wearing heels when they walk from behind

[@jason698]

To those powerful majestic beasts that was just a love tap.

[@RaineRed]

I think out of all animals gorilla and lions are the ones I hate seeing not being able roam free in the wild. They are kings! I know at least here they seem well treated just wish wasn't necessary.

[@inezandrade106]

São 6 gorilas que vivem aí ?

[@ritastevenson5532]

These gorillas enjoy having fun,, The young males love to instigate a commotion or two within twenty minutes,, they play wrestle amongst their own ages peers,, some enjoy setting off their father alpha leader TOP MAN, dad usually ignores the young boys trying to take him on,, it interesting to watch,

[@consuelopando9414]

The place of shabani is far better than momotaros place. It's more greener and cleaner unlike momotaros place it's sandy, soily and has many little stones

[@nicolefournel-hartery8187]

This is the first time I see a female (Annie) chest beating? I thought only males did this. If only males usually do this then I figure she does it because of her close relationship with her dad more than her mom.

[@4rg3s]

They both beat their chests to show domination.

[@stevemadden5467]

Chimpanzees ???? What u guys on ???
