This is honestly one of the best Gorilla enclosures I seen in all of these TH-cam videos. Spacious, plenty of stuff to climb on, and naturalistic. I wish more can be like this.
@@tarpnarp I definitely won’t deny that. Damian Aspinall is of the many who do great things for animals, especially gorillas. At least he’s trying to find a solution for gorillas to be free in a protected reserve or wherever. Zoos are ridiculous and nothing but entertainment. Gorillas do mot belong in zoos.
I'm not a gorilla specialist, but these demonstrations of force aimed at the crowd and the way he always seems vigilant and keeps an eye on everyone, makes me feel like this gorilla is very stressed out and on edge in his enclosure...
He legit kept looking up like, why are you watching me. If you sat and stared at someone in the mall while they ate. You'd get the same f*cking looks 😆😆
I believe gorillas were seen as legend before and during the age of western imperialism. Most zoos didn't have any gorillas until after WW2. I could be wrong.
@Magno Avatar Yes we are related, but it's not correct to determine genetic correlation based on DNA similarity of the strings. If this theory would be true we are 25% related with bananas and this doesn't make any sense. This theory is dismissed
It's what I love about silverback gorillas, they're dossile, majestic, exclusive creatures that keep to their groups and just wanna be left alone. But if provoked agrivated, threatened or crossed in any way or form, they're sooner to tear anyone or anything in half than look at them. Really gotta respect that.
Wish I could be a gorilla it must be amazing to be born with natural strength and being able to potentially and easily knock down a human in a fistfight
@@masterknife8423 Yes, but it it also means that you always have to live in the dense forest always wearing a fur, eating nothing but leaves and some other vegetable stuff, making your sleeping nest every evening (because you probably also pooped in the one you made the evening before), being exposed to rain, being followed by thousands of mosquitoes and other insects, and not to forget being threatened by humans ALLTHOUGH you are much stronger than them.
Leopards hunt and kill also silverback gorillas occasionally. They can't rip other strong animals in pieces, it's gross exaggeration. Lions and bears are stronger than gorillas to give some examples. Still gorillas are amazing and need protection in wild. They need certain envoronment to survive and we humans make it smaller all the time.
At least if you play your cards right, the silverback will at least charge you. No eye contact, slowly back away, and slowly sit down. If you don't follow these suggested steps, you're dead. At least he's no chimp.
All the biggest animals actually do. Its the ones that get the secondary source of nutrition that are small like tigers and lions. Sea creatures are peculiar tho.
@@AlexZander688 Farming is an evolutionary forward step. Its unfortunate to see humans killing beasties. The meat eaters gonna be our pets of the future. :p

Maybe so. You know how people change. When it's time for the high school reunion, I never go; I have no intention of letting others see how much weight I have gained.
So do I. I do not find Zoos to be ethical by any means. There is no way this environment is equal to the forests where Gorillas live. Not even a close race. Its heartbreaking.
Um... no, that is not why Gorilla's act like this. _Silverbacks_ are always super aggressive and stoic to other Gorillas, as are Alpha Chimpanzees and many other great apes. They are always herded by one big ass bully that keeps everyone in line. Just because you feel it to be true, doesn't make it so. Stop attributing your human feelings onto animals you know jack shit about.
He has a better life than most gorillas. A gorilla born in captivity doesn’t comprehend what living in the wild is like. It’s not like this guy is sitting their missing the good ole days.
I wish there could be some type of tinted glass so that we can see them but they can’t see us. It would give them a sense of privacy. I’d hate it if people stared at me all day.
Any sustained direct eye contact is considered an act of aggression or challenge in the gorilla world ... Numerous people staring therefore could be the cause of the dominance display.
They have feelings and emotions and there moments like anyone else right they make good parents and grandparents and stepparents and uncles and aunties stay safe and warm out stay strong and healthy as well much love and respect and appreciation 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 no robber or crook comes near the gorillas house just hilarious priceless if it happened being laughing hysterically god bless you guys thanks !!! Joe
Sad seeing these majestic creatures in zoos. He seemed agitated and stressed by all the humans and noise. Wish they had a little bigger enclosure to go at times.
@John Signs I'm a huge NFL Fan (BEARS) and my comment had nothing to do with Race....I was pointing out how strong and intimidating he is that's it...read my earlier comment please....now that's enough of that Crap...!
They would have to be as evil as us starting several 1000s of years ago. And actively hunt us down, realising what a scum we are. Rather than just chilling in jungle eating greens and fruits.
Badongo has very expressive eyes. All of the Silverbacks and other gorillas here in TH-cam look unique and have different type of look in their eyes. Gorillas are unlike other animals. I think they are the cutest among the great apes.
I love how Gorillas when trying to look big and tough will combo things, like the branch throw and landing making a noise combo with him beating his chest. Or when they kick things then beat their chest.
I remember as a child in the 60’s. We went to the Cincinnati zoo. Their gorilla exhibit consisted of 1 gorilla 🦍 in a jail type cell with a cement floor. What sticks out in my mind to this day; was it vomiting. Back in the 90’s I saw a elephant in a cement cell with shackles on its leg. I was thinking; “I will never come here again.” But I was wrong. In the 2000’s it was a have to trip. I saw the same elephant chained to that wall. Cincinnati zoo is Sucks. Indianapolis zoo is great.
When you’re species is known for being territorial of their environment I can only imagine how much stress they’re going through being trapped and watched by multiple random people
If there is one word to describe Gorillas: Grumpy If there is one word to describe chimpanzees: Crazy If there is one word to describe monkeys: Mischievous
Silverbacks are amazing. This gorilla enclosure looks really beautiful and comfortable: lots of soft ground, space to run and trees to climb in. Seeing it makes me miss summer and going to picnics.

imagine being over 400lbs of muscle and being able to move like that...NFL who?
And in ratio to their actual strength it’s probably like 3,000.
yeah but their hand size are bigger than dinner plates and bone density are so dense, a 250 lb gorilla would shred a 400 lb guy no probs.
@@8kigana I believe it bro
So your saying if this Gorilla was a running back he would just walk to the end zone un touched
It's because he's 400 pounds of muscle that he can move like that.
They have a nicer enclosure than other gorillas kept in zoos ❤️🦍
But he can see people watching him
Lol. The face he's making is like - "Yeh...bet that scared em'. Yeh."
...and without that fence in between yourself and him...it definitely would have worked.
He deserves more respect than being laughed at in a Zoo :( A wise old soul, soo sad for him.
I also love the way they eat with their lips closed, my son is nearly 19 and can’t
Is he in college?
