She is showing her baby. She sees human babies thru the glass. My grandmother took me down to see a wild fox once when i was real small and that fox went down a grabbed one her babies and brought it back to show us! Animals are precious gifts to be respected! 😊
We respect animals but treat other humans like shit
❤
@@donjurnee4678 what ... Not most of people respects animals ... Just as they don't respects humans or themselfs ... We all need to respect all lifes, all lives are precious ...
@donjurnee4678 sorry no. Humans treat animals way worse
@@donjurnee4678 family quarrels at mass scale , gorillas treat other gorillas like sh*t and so on
"Mom, stop! You're embarrassing me!"
Moms all the same 🤣🤣🤣
As well as childrens
😂
More like stop mom you dislocated my shoulder
Lol
Lmao 😆🤣
The kisses she gave this baby 💞 So proud of her little one and so loved. Just like a human mother.
Much better than a lot of human mothers!
Fun fact, Kissing was originally about parents spreading their immune system to their babies through saliva. So at least in great apes, it was originally for showing affection to babies and not adults. We're unclear on how the meaning behind it changed and why it spread to adult affection, but it has. Humans are the weird but successful cousin to the other great apes.
@@luna_moraabsolutely agree! 💯
It never ceases to amaze me how human like they are. Those kisses are the sweetest thing ever!
Are those kisses though? I've always thought they are something else. I just don't know what? 😕
Here's a virtual kiss 💋
To you
It really is mind-blowing when you watch them over extended periods of time. You notice so many little details and mannerisms.
@@User_92020 Awe, thank you 😊
@@presidenttnediserp428 Oh, idk lol. Looked like kisses to me, but I could be wrong!
"Good arms. Legs are ok. Smells fine. You can live."
😂😂😂!
Hahaha brilliant 😂🤣😂🤣
Lol
Wtf?
Bruh
SUREEEEEE it’s cute now but when I hold a baby like that everyone gets mad
Did you know human babies are always born prematurely as they'd kill the mother if born when their done developing?
It's a evolution thing
😭😭😭

😆😆😆
@@Rpm521 🤣👍🏾.... good one
Reminds me of the days when maternity wards showed the new babies through the hospital nursery window for visitors to see. Proud Mama.
oh did they stop doing that?
I know, I miss those days. When I would go visit someone in the hospital on the way out I had to go by the nursery to see the babies. They were so precious. They need to bring that back.
@@TanyaOwensgurll. I did not lose sight of mine after i gave birth. Only when i had a shower after and i had family in there. They don't handle the baby out of your sight at all nowadays let alone a display lol 😅 didnt even wash the baby surely just that first initial wipe. I think they are avoiding any trouble whatsoever on their end
You mean the hospitals don’t do that anymore?
🤦🏻♀️
They don't do the viewing windows in the maturity ward anymore?😮
Mommy's love can NEVER be replaced.
The humans should have held up their child as well 😂 “oh look at mines”
You can see all the little kids by the window. I think that’s why
Mines?
Haha 😅
@@buradley1733 yuppers!
😂
I had no idea animals showed affection to each other in the form of kissing. That was absolutely incredible
It's grooming, not kissing. You thought that tourist was a scientist or something?
Actually many species of great apes kiss to show affection
@@cr36039 they can perceive pheromones unlike us, its us humans that decided to turn it into a form of furthered intimacy
@@SDayle nab thats kissing. people bring their small children to the zoo all the time. its definetly a learned activity from the humans through the glass. that gorilla sees 50 kids and families a day.
@@Bella-qu5pf , you really think a newborn gorilla is excreting pheromones?
Nothing beats a mother's love 😘💕 happy precious mother's day ma'am
There is nothing better than motherly love.
nothing at all
Oh she's so proud of her baby. She is a very loving mama too.
she's a locked up mama too
@@dimitrijekrstic7567 ...yes that is sad. But at the same time, they're health and welfare is being met.
@@dimitrijekrstic7567 better than having your hands be an ashtray.
WTF. Are these people trying to trigger people. Scared to death for that poor baby. TF????
@@landofthelivingskies3318 , I found research originally published in 1992 that addresses the overall health and wellbeing of gorillas in zoos:
"KOPFF (1982) and SUCKER (1987) already noticed that gorillas do not like to stay in the open; this should be expected, because they are rain forest primates. If the enclosure furnishings are not attractive to them, they spend most time near the walls ...
Much more important for the animals than the mere floor space of a gorilla exhibit is its structure - facilities that provide shelter and an opportunity to lean against them, for example trees, walls, niches and sleeping cages. Even a glass barrier is a 'wall' and therefore used as a place for rest."
Source: "Effects of the Environment on the Behaviour of Lowland Gorillas in Zoos" by A. Meder, published online by the Animal Welfare Institute
"But mom I don't want to say hi..."
"Kevin you better behave yourself we have guests"
Of course his name is Kevin 😂
Exactly what I thought.
@@VisionsFromAmari definitely thinking of kevin hart right now. Its crazy because im just after watching a video with kevin hart and then i see this comment.
🤣🤣🤣
Lol 🤣🤣😂
This made me tear up ... they are sooo cute! Love a mother's love!❤❤🥲
What a beautiful gesture - she is a proud momma
She's more genuinely affectionate to her young than a lot of moms out there 😑
This! Isn't it's sad?
Unfortunately that’s true
And dads
Yes that is so true
More affectionate than my mom
All those kisses. Such a human gesture of affection. Most interesting.
Gestures of affection are not just a human thing.
As said above, it's not only human to be affectionate and kiss babies.
I saw a video of a young gorilla throwing sand on a huge silver back gorilla and he didn't yell at the young or hit it it as most humans do. He just stood there in front of it to block its path and after a few seconds gave it a kiss on the forehead.
Humans could learn so much from other great apes in regards to education and love!
@@shantinaturechild6385 gorillas live in social groups and they all share in the raising of the young. If a mother dies, the baby will still be taken care of.
@@shantinaturechild6385 all animals show affection to their children. They cry when they leave!
It's not a human gesture, it's primal to the core
How precious and adorable.. She's a proud momma . ❤😊❤😊❤😊
A true mother right there!
Mommy is so proud of her adorable baby. She's head over heels in baby love...
Great job mommy!
She’s so in love with her baby!! Ahhh she’s smooching her up
She's eating buds off the baby. You can see her chewing when she pulls the baby away from her face.
Утренняя зарядка
Yes, looks she proud of her baby
Listen all animals have feelings personalities and souls. Beautiful and proud of her baby she shows him off!
Except mosquitos.
Que divina esa mamá, orgullosa de su precioso bebé
PRECIOSO?
It almost seemed like she was particularly making eye contact with your children as if to say "see...I have kids too. I love my babies too, like your mommy loves you." They're so smart. Can't put anything past them. Just INCREDIBLE!!! I LOVE THIS VIDEO!
“I have babies too! I don’t deserve to be locked in a damn cage to be viewed and pointed at every single day
@@sophritoh exactly!!!!
@@sophritoh how True .most people don't think that way.
@@sophritoh I've always thought what if the same exact thing is happening to us and we're just not aware. But yeah screw zoos let these beautiful animals be free.
@@sophritoh - then it is a good thing you are not a gorilla.
I can feel the sockets in my shoulders being dislocated.
Edit: To all those telling me this is normal for Gorillas, I'm well aware. I was making an observation for how this scenario would be different if they were human.
Fun fact. I did have my shoulder dislocated by my mother in the late 80's. I was like 5 or 6. I can't remember exactly what led to it, but I was holding onto a railing. She lost her patience and yanked me off of it. Of course she told the hospital that I fell or something. I remember the feeling of them twisting and torquing my arm and shoulder back into place. It was very painful.
😂
Mee too mee too.. I was scared the babies arm would fall off..😅😢
me too😂😅
I had no idea that gorilla 🦍 moms
kiss💋😘🚼 their babies(🍼)🚼 & show this extraordinary affection🥰😍
to their young 🚼
Yeah, and it seems baby gorillas don't get nursmaid's elbow either.
Some humans could learn so much from this beautiful moment between mother and child! My heart melted when I saw this video!!
Omg! She’s giving the baby kisses! It’s so precious!! ❤😍
We can pretend.
@@JennyRose1776 Gorilla’s love their babies. They live in Family groups. She loves her baby and shows it affection. Idk what “we can pretend” I have no idea what you’re referring too. All I see if a mother giving her baby kisses. 🤷♀️
@@casie912 I NEVER said that they don't "love their babies" what I AM SAYING is that I get that it's hard to see the ants/bugs on the baby but if you REALLY WATCH mom's eyes and mouth as she's looking/scanning over her baby and perfectly placing "kisses" you'll see that she's plucking/eating the bugs off the baby with her lips but you just keep on living in a LALA Disney movie where all the wild animals and people live together and love each other... go give a big ol momma grizzly and her adorable fluffy babies some huggles... maybe she'll be so grateful for the hugs that she'll gather up all the foofy bunnies and other forest animals to come sing you a song.
@@JennyRose1776 wow, what a completely unnecessary and sarcastic response.
All you had to do was say that you thought the mother gorilla wasn’t kissing her baby but eating the bugs off her.
But no that wasn’t enough for you was it, you had to throw in the sarcasm with the Disney la la stuff.
Your world must be a very sad place to live in.
@@JennyRose1776 who hurt you 😂
Omg she’s kissing her baby I love this so beautiful 😍
Yes
Ikr????? Adorable 😍💕😍💕
Or eating bugs and pests off it
@@flammableelmo4966 that's not traditionally grooming behavior, those are definitely affectionate.
That is so sweet!! 🥰 Such a proud mama😘😘
Momma's so proud ❤❤❤❤
That is really wholesome how she kisses her baby
On the forehead the first time was so human like
She has certainly seen many humans do the same!!!
Don’t mean to break hearts but she’s eating bugs off of it lol
@@nancy-katharynmcgraw2669
Not necessarily, monkeys in the wild give kisses as well
@@abramgarrow7691 no gonna disagree that first one was a legitimate kiss.
That was so cool. She really was showing off her pretty baby. Was fun to watch. Great video
This comment passed the vibe check
@@rereleases NPC
It’s ugly but still cool to watch
@@Misandrist-hitler better than you tho
She is checking for fleas, bugs, dirt and such not showing it off. She wasn't kissing she was cleaning it's face.
Omg, those kisses are everything.
A mother's love ❤
This gorilla I’m sure is kind! Kinder than our neighbors and kinder than a lot of our family members!!!❤
They have a highly intelligent being locked up in a cage for amusement. I feel like they have the capacity to understand that.
For -amusement- survival because zoo animals can't survive on their own
Listen to Alice Phoebe Lou 'Tiger song' ✌
Right it’s sad 😢 🤦🏾♀️
Right but the fact the fact that we do this to any literal living creature is beyond me. It’s nuts. Smh.
I don’t go to zoos if you could imagine lol. It’s such an odd and twisted thing to me.
Humans still enslave other humans to this day, so not surprising we still enslave other animals.
I love how gorillas look like a mix of " I love my baby,look kisses" and then " tf is this thing all over me ,imma swing it around"
My thoughts to the T!
Just like my mom 🥰
@@breannaclark4070 just shows we really did evolve from monkeys 🤣
LMAO 😂🤣🤣🤣 thanks for this because really… ☠️
Lol I agree
Absolutely gorgeous. This is how animals act and it's beautiful to witness. The zoo obviously is very good at caring for their animals.
Beautiful, intelligent, bold, wonderful. Please double the size of their enclosure.
I wonder if the kissing is something the gorilla learned/mimicked from being around humans, or if gorillas actually kiss in the wild.
Apes and monkeys kiss their young.
Part of genetics we share them too
Wild apes kiss their babies too
A lot of wild apes and monkeys kiss as a sign of affection to their babies or other adults.
Joe Biden visited and kissed a lot of youth
Can you imagine if that’s how we handled our newborns? Lmao
They cursed Michael Jackson for doing that.
My auntie handled us like this.
I'm surprised more comments aren't about how rough she is with a new baby 😂. Still cute though 😍
To be honest I was a bit on edge about that... I mean she's a huge gorilla and the baby's just so tiny
@@michelemichele7178 strengthens their arms. They're gonna be hanging and jumping from trees and they need to be able to handle the force and impact.
She loves her baby! Such sweet kisses!❤
The love of a mother...kissing her baby every 2 minutes. So adorable and cute.👏😍😘
That gorilla is a better mother than most in the states
She's such a proud momma😊
It's amazing that God made most animals mothers to love their baby's like that. So sweet
god doesnt exist
They're actually kinda cute. "Oh, thank you for showing us" 😂😂😂 I love it!
She kisses her baby on the head like I used to my babies. ❤️
😂❤
Adorable animaux ❤❤❤❤❤ l amour d une maman
Certainly hope ur not as rough as she is 😂
@@SaintBison209 Hahaha!! I’m not! I promise!
That kiss.. 🥰🥰🥰. She's an awesome mom!!
yeah
It just occurred to me my mother never kissed me like this even...
@@juntjoonunya9216 lmao
Чудесная мамочка,поделилась своей радостью
Orgullosa mamá, muestra su bebé hermoso. Cuánto amor.....❤❤❤😊
Just like any mom, she's very proud an the sweet kiss was heartwarming..❤
Congrats mommy😊 she's a beauty.😊
Looks like she's kissing her baby just the way a human mother would kiss her baby !! 😘😊
Maybe we copied them 🌏🌎🌍
She was. No doubt.
We're both apes.
@@abdulkadir6532 it’s pretty well known that we didn’t come from apes
I think she is
I find it amazing that people don't know they are animals too
I love how this Mother Gorilla shows off her baby and kisses her baby. I love it! We can learn how much they treat their off-spring and know we can understand how they feel too.
Animals are better parents than a lot of humans I've seen.
FACTS
some animals kill and eat their young
@@pinkpugginz ever heard of abortion?
@@pinkpugginz was going to say that
@@pinkpugginz I mean. Humans do too. LMAO. it’s rare but facts.
Also, animals go by instinct. Humans go off emotions. That’s why animals are so good, they do what they need to do.
the gorilla was like I’ll help you make a video
😂😂🤣🤣
Talk about gorilla I can't forget that video gorilla throw his poop and hit right on old lady face..
Ahhh,so adorable 🥰🥰🥰 . Momma gorilla giving love but she looks like she might hurt the twiggy arm of baby 🍼💖 as she is so strong.
Then proceed to rips the baby arms off 🤣
Thx for the likes
The way this mother casually dangles her baby by the limbs, instinctively knowing she is in no danger of injuring it, really helps put into perspective how much stronger, more durable and more agile the muscles, ligaments, tendons, joints and skeletal structure of the great apes are in comparison to that of humans. Especially at the shoulders.
Amazing how wild animals have more humanity than some humans
“Those babies are resilient” at the end took me out 😂😂😂😂
QS
Agree
Young zoo-attenders turning into their parents
💀💀💀💀
well I mean if we do this to human babies we're 100% going to jail 🗿
They’re so human like. We can learn so much more from animals. These guys are our closest animal relative and are still poached. Humans have a long way to come still. Wake up everyday and treat everything and everyone with love. You don’t know who needs it. It makes all the difference. 🙏🏼
They are very human like wow !! Love it ! ☺️
This gorilla is displaying what people have been doing with their own babies. Of course, our intention was to let the BABY see her. The gorilla seems to think like you!
❤❤❤❤❤
Actually dolphins are our closest relative
@@daisybcomedy2170The chimpanzee and bonobos are humans' closest living relatives when it comes to actual DNA competitiveness. We shared the same brain intelligence as dolphins. There's a difference
Such a sweet moment!❤️
Absolutely adorable!!!
This is what the aliens see when watching us from space
You mean when watching us from the earth 🤫👽

@@StupidButLearning my daughters hamster ate her babies 😂
And l always judge and rate the babies.
That's adorable, like any other mommy, proud of her baby and luving on him.....
If a Gorilla feels all that ❤💋, pride for their offspring - EVERY human needs to take a page out of her book.
Nature, Nurture ❤
So absolutely beautiful!❤
Sad to see that a gorilla is a better mom then "some" people out there...
*most people...Fixed it for you.
Why sad?
True.Animals not aborting their babies for world wicked things like 40milion aborted babies they use HEK 293 - human embryonic kidney cells taken from an aborted baby to produce these receptors, which is why they promote and support abortion.Why do you think chips classic are so delicious and most of the food?Animals are better parrents better picture of life than us "humans"
the idiots who let their kid fall into the gorilla enclosure
RIP harambe
it gave it a kiss like a human I guess that confirms more and more humans are apes 😂
She is so sweet. That was just the cutest and heart warming experience I've ever seen. 💕💕💕💕
Yes she is a GREAT MOTHER her baby...
I wish ppl wouldn't cut the video's thing to compete with other platforms... this video had a new mama visiting the zoo... gorilla saw the baby went and got her baby.. it was very sweet
"I made this. You see this? Yeah, this came out of me. Praise me."
@Samantha Dunn this is a wonderful mantra for mothers.
❤❤❤❤❤ to see the momma kissing her baby is priceless ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Proud Mother 🫡👑
They are as proud of their Babies as we are. Gives Hugs and Kisses
So Beautiful
I wonder if they know how to kiss from instinct or they learned from watching human mothers through the glass kissing their own babies?
@@zen8704 that's a very good question 🤔 corner gorillas in the wild have been observed doing this, possibly learned from hundreds or thousands of years ago from watching humans? That or it's just a primary instinct for primates, considering humans are primates as well.
@@westonbooth6230 Last part makes more sense.
@@zen8704 having to show affection and kiss does not require inteligence. All mamals exibit these behaviours.
@@ghost_vission2468 it still definitely requires intelligence… you might need to look into the definition of intelligence. All mammals display some level of intelligence, even if it’s not the same level as humans
We see them behaving with consciousness and love, yet we keep them locked in cages.......dumb humans
What’s your point. We have humans locked in cages too. I’m sure this gorilla is well cared for. You don’t know the circumstances on this gorilla so you should reserve your judgment.
Free these animals! I agree
@@phylicia6082 This gorilla was born in a zoo. Zoos want to keep animals wild but fear their extinction. For example western lowland gorillas are endangered due to poaching and ebola spread.
But you do realize the ones in captivity can't be released? I mean, you do understand that right? And any type of wild animals in the zoo is either because they were born into the zoo or because they were sick and, they had to step in and rescue them. It's not always a bad thing, a lot of times these types of animals are rescue animals, and they can't ever go back out into the wild because they cant fend for themselves anymore, don't be ignorant about it, because most of these animals can't go back out into the wild again, and it's not because of the zoo it's because they were born into it, or they're just not capable of taking care of themselves, and let's be real. They're safer here than they would ever be free, but I agree they should be free but not these animals.
@@flyingorange2482 So maybe we shouldnt keep breeding them whilst they are kept in confinement.
The kisses are the sweetest ❤
Она показала, как сильно любит своего ребеночка!
Even though she was manhandling that baby like a rag doll, that kiss melted my heart!! 🥰
😂😂😂😂all love though
That is so beautiful! The way she kisses her baby is just adorable.....and just like us, she wants to show off her cute baby to all the guests! 🥰
And what happens later? Selling the baby making money... Look att the environment
@@jozphine84 :What about the environment ? They look like they have a nice home and are taken care of. And people are kept behind bulletproof glass.
@@jozphine84: They look like they are well taken care of and mom is sitting close to the visitors, apparently enjoying the interaction!!!!
This is probably gonna sound so stupid but do gorillas normally kiss each other and their babies or is this something they’ve possibly learned by watching humans?
@@williepearl278 Remember Dian Fossey ? The famous primatologist who studied Gorillas in the wild for almost two decades until she was murdered because of her anti-poaching advocacy ? She observed many human like traits among the primate families. They hug, they kiss, they groom each other, they have sex and show affection to their mates. They have all the tender human qualities when it comes to caring for their young, even more so.
That's precious and it's awesome they show love like that
That kiss was so sweet!! 🥹🙏♥️
I think it was the cutest thing when she kissed her baby. Thank you for showing us indeed!🥰
I know, she was kissing it!!! How can anyone ever doubt that they can love? They do love!
That's amazing

so beautiful
The missing link is intelligible speech. Motherhood is Motherhood.
This is so sad, I wish they could live in freedom
That caged gorrilla's humanlike behaviour makes you think "Who are the real animals?"
its not humanlike when these animals have done this for plenty of years 💀🤡
The Gorilla’s.
Animals are Animals, then there's Demons, in Human skin suits.
No it doesn't
The animals
This is so precious A Mothers Love for her Child
Warms my heart!!! So cute those kisses
Omg so amazing 💖 she's keeps kissing her baby 😍 they are such amazing animals 💕 the babies are so tiny when born and grow up to be huge lol ❤️
That shows me they're way too smart and loving to be in there.
but if it goes outside its gonna murder people
So they should be in nature where the baby has a 3/10 chance to survive 💀😭😭 male gorilla kill baby gorillas if it not theirs… at least in captivity the baby has a 8/10 chance to survive
I don't care as long as they are being taken care of amd have a reason to be here....people want to see animals and if theyavre educational to people why are we judging?
Since when do people not care about animals being in their natural habitat??? Is this even a debate? Crazy
@@King-kw1mo Yeah! They are way better off locked in a cage their entire life having people look at them all day everyday. You're a 🤡
