Update: the Mountain Gorilla population has increased to over 1,000 and rising. While still considered critically endangered, they’ve got a fighting chance!
7:05 i love how they rip trees down but still refuse to look at you directly on. Always loved how they try and catch side glances while pretending not to be interested. So fascinating
To look to much into someone you are not close to in the eyes is considered rude from both Humans and Gorilla. You try it go up to someone and look at them in the eyes while saying nothing they are either going to get mad at you and ask what your problem is then confront you or they put there head down in fear and walk away. Also the same as Gorilla, humans will, seek support from nere by friends or family if there is a masculine man around He will confront you.
A bit late but speaking from a human perspective, when I imagine being near a gorilla I am catching all the side glances i can bet. But ion know that jus me
@@cortube5893 thats a chimp thing ive never seen or heard of a gorilla flinging poo i might be wrong but they are a lot cleaner than chimps also they may not eat meat but they do sometimes eat insects though.
Bamboo shoots: But before they can be consumed, the shoots need their fibrous exteriors cut away, and then the shoots need to be boiled. When eaten raw, bamboo contains a toxin that produces cyanide in the gut. Many Asian grocery stores will sell freshly prepared bamboo shoots that have already been detoxified. Don’t worry about the canned variety: They’re perfectly safe to eat without further cooking.
I think I would be in tears to be so close to such majestic, natural, living beauty as this, and honestly would have been scared, but sooo honored to be shoved like that...and thank you, my friends, for helping it not escalate. Wow.
Isn't it amazing that he actually did not hurt her at all ? I mean, these animals can clearly very accurately decide how much force they want to use, and what to achieve with that. If they could talk, they'd be considered humans.
Summary: Koko's IQ is 85-95, the lower spectrum of human intelligence. She understands spoken English without the help of signs, She can recognize herself in a mirror. Her GSL is not body language, they are specific hand movements, the reason why it is called "GSL" is because Koko changed some signs to better suit her fingers.
she is so lucky to get the privileged in a close encounter with the Gorillas family😊..it so lovely to see Gorillas having a good time in their own kingdom💞
Hahaha "being kicked by a gorilla is a privilege"! This is like one of the lines in the Mean Girls movie "one time she punched me in the face, it was awesome!"
Well the ones in the zoo are nice and calm,with good manners who don't mind working for their food....The one's on the streets are like mean animals with LESS intelligence who will STEAL and rob for their food! FOR SURE!!!! Plus the zoo animals don't abuse drugs and nod out on you on the bus!!!! Just the other day,a stinky silverback drawling flies and crawling with bedbugs fell asleep right on my shoulder on the subway....:)
He was beating his chest trying to tell them to leave their territory, the film crew has to justify their salary so they spin it as if the 2 gorillas were trying to show their strength.
Gorilla ain’t aggressive they are just playing. They only become aggressive if think your trying to hurt them same with Orang and Binobo but the Chimps are evil they will ripped you apart and eat you.
@Beep Boop right I keep getting scared for the people and animals because if something did happen it would be bad for all the animals would be put down and people would die
Paulo Austria 100 years ago the people who studied apes thought that the chimps were the peaceful ape and the gorillas were dangerous and most aggressive towards humans. How wrong they were
Yeah, the gorillas came up to her. You just don't see the whole clip. They chopped and diced out the boring parts. That was one of the parts that was cut out. You're not allowed to willingly sit that close. So, the gorillas had to have come up to her, in which case she couldn't have just gotten up and moved as fast movements tend to trigger them. Just saying.
I feel like Dian Fossey should also be thanked for trying to save this species. She gave her life trying to do it and is responsible for teaching us Westerners that they're good for more than just ashtrays.
@@nabilrizky7192 gorillas are NOT pets. Just let them be. At most, if there's an exceptionally intelligent one, like Koko, it can hang around in a specially designed place.
animacrom | Probably not... domesticating animals is *not* an easy process, and most simply can't be kept as pets. Scientists have been attempting to breed their way to a domestic fox for years now, and it's *real* slow going.
It's like this Gorilla family has a Reality TV contract... "we need some drama, attack the lady" "really? we're allowed?" "sure! it will make great television" “ha! Alright!”
I really wish I could do more to help. I love humans as well; but just looking at these beings, I just can't imagine what the world would be if they disappeared. Their numbers should go up; they deserve it. They are a prime example of peaceful beings.
This is fantastic! I wish people could be content with watching nature on a screen like this instead of encroaching on their territory and killing them for sport
It's unbelievable that the two teenagers included the lady in the "practice", the older one was like saying "excuse me", then kicking the lady gently. The other one was a bit bolder and didn't even say " sorry".🤣
I wonder if it’s just teenagers being goons or if they wanted to see what her reaction was. Like they seem smart enough to be able to tell we’re similar to them, but they have no way of knowing if we’re just some weak malformed gorilla or a lethal threat to them.
@@smelma They are intelligent enough to know who we are. They know that we have two hands, two legs, we behave similarly to them. Gorillas study human behavior just as humans study theirs, which allows them to distinguish between human and human.
@2:18 when the boss lays down to take a nap. the movement of his eyes, mouth, lips everything you any dad do on a saturday afternoon as he takes a nap on the couch. its just funny how they act just like us or we like therm.

"share planet Earth" Which means we have to get back to maybe 2 billion, from our obscene, multiplying-like-rabbits-landing-like-locust level of 7,800,000,000 -- which would also make a huge difference when horror things happen (like Australia fires, bubonic plague, an asteroid hit, melting Russian and Canadian tundra, melting icecaps).

It's all right for us sitting in an armchair with a steaming cuppa...but look at the hardships the inconveniences the discomforts faced by these dedicated scientists and zoologists...it's because of them these wonderful creatures survive today and we get to look at them and the wonder of it all.
Man, seeing that poor gorilla with the missing foot makes my blood boil. I was going to say it made me hopping mad but realized that would be a poor choice of words in this situation. The only thing that makes me angrier than people shooting these magnificent creatures is people who set traps and snares like that. They're so damned inhumane and so cruel.

Eye contact for Gorillas is considered a challenge so they're likely trying to avoid a fight.
That woulda hurt the lady

Mountain gorrilla babys are so fluffy and cute so different from zoo gorrillas and everything is green and luxurious for them they look so healthy 😊
Thats because most zoo’s have a general sub species
That's because there are no mountain gorillas in captivity. The ones you see in zoos are lowland gorillas, which are a different species
Well it's cold up there cause they live in mountains
Hahaha "being kicked by a gorilla is a privilege"! This is like one of the lines in the Mean Girls movie "one time she punched me in the face, it was awesome!"

And these were just 2 teenagers playing and showing off.

Couldn't agree more. Just majestic animals. Such a shame they've been hunted to near extinction in the wild.

Lord Rayken Yeah, but hardly "a prime example of peaceful beings".
For a being that can tear a human or almost anything to shreds with little effort they're pretty peaceful. Compare that to chimps.

Yup. That's them saying, "Get the hell out of here."

It's a contest of strength between the two not aggression
It's like that old man who is a shopkeeper at the corner of the street you cross everyday shooing naughty teenagers.

where did you see that a gorilla wanted to hurt someone and where did you see that a gorilla wanted to kill someone?
When you're in a life threatening situation and you're all casual about it. Nice.
seeing a gorilla isn't life threatening. as long as you know how to act in the situation. there are plenty of warning signs a gorilla gives

Oh okay, so when baby gorillas roll around in the grass making grunting noises it's "cute," but when I do it I need a "restraining order."
8 billion people but only 350 mountain gorillas left? Does that seem fair?
Heartbreaking and infuriating seeing that mother caring for her baby having lost a foot. You’d think that would instill a growing contempt for humans
