    To the Videographer: It seems Shabani recognizes you - and likes you!!! 🥰 That gentle tap on the glass was a form of acknowledgment rather than a sign of irritation or a warning.
    I’m quite impressed, because it seems Shabani isn’t very fond us humans, as he usually keeps his distance and encourages the troop to do the same. You must be doing a wonderful job there at the zoo for the world-famous Shabani to have accepted your presence!!! Congratulations 😊

      @@ChooseCompassion That, indeed, would be a wonderful thing. But, a knowledgeable and professional zoo with trained caretakers that has enough room for a gorilla family or families can be a more safe, compassionate, and caring environment than the big bad open world of the most voracious killers on earth - humans.
      Gorillas are endangered and must be protected from poachers who kill the gorillas in order to sell body parts (like hands for ashtrays) to collectors or sell the babies to people who keep them in their private "zoos" for their amusement.
      Due to current conditions, people now live in the same areas as the gorillas. People need to eat and so they deforest the land to plant food crops for themselves which removes the food source for the gorillas. People have families to feed, clothes, and house and those needs have led people to kill gorillas for their family to consume or to sell the butchered gorilla parts as bush meat.
      Until the ever-increasing numbers of people can find a way to live in the same area in harmony with gorillas AND other animals, zoos and no-kill reserves (some have established a tourist opportunity) will be required in order to preserve the existence of these magnificent beings.

      These gorillas have been born in captivity! They cannot be freed in the wild. And still, have you seen the documentaries of wild gorillas, where poachers end families by killing the silverbacks? So the families get confused and eventually perish because no leader? Or when they killed the silverbacks and the females to steal the babies? I would rather see them safe, well fed and enjoying their babies and their lives than getting killed because of their "exotic" meat or their body parts.
