Imagine if the narrator said “and that’s my story of how I became the first talking gorilla”
It was the narrator LMAO
@@mohitmehta1009 i know that’s why I said imagine.
I WOULD LOSE MY SHT 😭😂😂🤚🏽

Lmaooooooo that would be cool as hell though
The gorilla when he sees his old friends: yeah I got a PhD in human language
it’s a girl

“Koko cry, sad, unattention, visit me” 🥺🥺🥺Shes saying she misses her and doesnt like being alone im crying. Such a sweet soul.
Koko, couldn’t actually talk though. It’s been debunked. However, it’s still sad she never got to mate
Toney's Reviews really! Aww I thought she could :( oh well she is still affectionate though!
@@antimilkpropaganda No, not at all. She could sign items that she wanted or sign stuff like hello/goodbye, but as far as talking (like a conversation) she could not.
@Emily C I am not spreading any type of misinformation, lol. You can literally see articles among articles debunking this.
This "communicating" level she showed was no higher than a crow saying hello. She had basic/trained commands. Hello, Goodbye, and etc. She could not and never showed an ability to carry on a conversation.
Emily stop trying to make something that doesn't exist.
@Emily C This is a quite simple task, all it requires is typing into Google.
Koko made the wrong signs on multiple occasions and not only that would randomly sign "nipple" all of the time. In many cases where Koko was doing the wrong thing her care takers would run up to her to correct it asap.
The fact is, she could not speak. "Why is she showing her trainer what she wants using gestures", lol. Why does a dog push an empty bowl to its owners feet when it's hungry? These are simple association tactics that all animals use. Did she show the ability to recall and remember things, yes. However, this is not speaking.
Let me ask you this, since you think she was so smart, then why is it that they never taught her how to spell? Her hand works the same as yours and mine. Why is it that when random people would ask her questions she was unable to answer. Again, this has been debunked by many scientist.
Now, keep lowering yourself and not realizing how special you are.
My wife worked with KoKo / The Gorilla Foundation for a little over four years. There were three gorillas there, the other two being "Ndume" and "Michael". She has told me stories of how smart they were and having pretend ''tea' with Koko.
That is awesome dude
I think she has two husband 😂you are the homesit guy.. And the other was from a work guy.
@@samuelkhamliansang lmfao that was so out of left field
Wait SHES YOURE HUSBAND??
@@samuelkhamliansangreading that made my head hurt
Unfortunately, Koko died about a year ago, without having had any children. It would have been nice to see if she could have taught sign language to a daughter or son.
Tflexxx02 RIP

This is sad.
I thought she had children and teached them sign language. Might have been another study with gorillas though. So it definitely is possible

An adorable animal that actually shows love of others. I know she loved her kitten that she ask for as a friend. No one can say she's not intelligent, that's obvious.
we have animals (invasive) of lesser form in sweden that entered via a parasite infected government.
Those are called minority. A form of lesser animals that are attacking the native higher pure animals with knives killing and kicking swanes, kittens and hedgehogs.
@Brian Dawson My pup knows well over 100 words and phrases and she can read my movements. She know when I order food over the computer and goes to the door and waits for the delivery. She can tell when I wake up I guess from my breathing and barks at me when she wants me to come to bed. Tell me she has no intellegence and I will laugh in your face. affection comes from any animal. You either have a stupid dog or you don't work with it enough
.
Unfortunately Koko never could talk to people that weren't her handler, she's always given directions and any researchers that weren't her handler couldn't get anything coherent from her.
I heard she ended some of thier lives tragically but who knows. I grew up loving koko or the image portrayed.

Any one of us who has ever had a pet KNOWS that Animals can communicate with us!
some f*t**d called as scientist will demand proof
Every animal can communicate, but Koko was different because she learned human language, that certain motions represent certain words. A cat can communicate, but she doesn't have different sounds or motions for "building," "ball" or "grass." Gorillas and chimps are unique.
@@GertyutzDogs and Cats (some breeds better than others) can understand specific words and motions and what their meaning is, they just don’t have the physical capability to communicate it to us the same way. Though there is one workaround this using buttons that have individual words that are played when pressed. It’s a lot to do with how much effort and money (those button system usually aren’t cheap and the more your pet learns the more buttons you’ll need and the more expensive it is) you are willing to put into your pet.
I don’t want to take away from how amazing Koko was, but she most likely wasn’t close to fluent in “human language” and she was probably closer to how our smartest dogs and cats can be with buttons just with the extra of being able to fully communicate it without having any form of assistance.
👏❤️

"Did you know there was a gorilla that could communicate with humans." There I fixed it. I'm trying lol.
True
I'm curious about what someone from the deaf community thinks of the title. Is sign language a means of talking?
Thanks look’s better now
All gorrillas can communicate, just not in this way, so technically you did not fix it.
"Did you know there was a gorilla that could communicate with a sign language" Much better

Yes

And probably better grammar.
Scientists are just jealous they didn’t try it first
DonnaTheHag * no, the point is that there is no evidence that Koko ubderstands the words she is using and can form elaborate semtences with themy
@@MisterK9739 she cant elaborate words by saying then back, but she certainly understands how the sign corrolates to a certain action she is understanding that hey this sign means this an that sign means that .. no she can't speak but she can understand alot more then your giving credit where it's due
Dylan Levy Yes but a dog can do the same. It can understand its name and realize a certain command like "sit", "stay" etc.
Language is way more complex than this.
So no, Koko can not speak. She can communicate, but she can not speak with her hands.
@@MisterK9739 yea but the dog ain't gonna signal back to you as a response telling you to sit, where as this gorilla signalled her mom to tickle her, or can tell her she wants food or wants to wear the hat etc she is communicating back as well as understanding what's being said
Dylan Levy You obviously don't own a dog.. some breeds like Huskies are VERY social and vocal.
“Maybe these animals are thinking”
-well no shit.
You know the all saying animals don't have emotions and don't think just act on instinct.
Space Whale forreal🤦🏻♀️
@@chanelhanson9944 Yes, they are.
@Shàñkš Humans are scientifically classified as mammals (mammalia), that class belongs to the kingdom of animals (animalia), we are by definition animals, evolution made us slowly use our brains to think and do specific tasks, we are what we are now but it doesn't mean we aren't animals.
It has been proven times and times again that animals have emotions when a family member dies or when something bad happens, dogs for exemple do show some guilt when they do something bad, monkeys and gorillas have also proven to use low level tools suchs as sticks and other to ease the openning of foods and others.
I'm not here to yell at you, I'm here to inform you, you may have not knew about that but now, you can't say you don't know anymore.
@Shàñkš definitely animals can think and it's not just instinct. We also evolved from apes and monkeys, we share 92% of a gorillas genome, Which has strong evidence that we are related to them. Heres a way to look at it. All proteins and growth in animals are controlled by DNA, in humans it's the same. Furthermore you dont know if the earliest of humans were as smart as us. So you cannot come to the conclusion that we are unique. It is over time that we evolved to developed intelligence. And so far the theory of evolution is the most reasonable and logical theory to explain life. You may think we know right and wrong but so do animals, it's just that their wrongs and our wrongs are different. And by the way I not an atheist, I'm a Christian.
Robin Williams and Koko is just life affirming.

a parrot is like a recorder. A gorilla can formulate abstract ideas beyond the limited signs they were taught and use the laguage to comunicate them. If they dont speak is only because they dont have the physical anatomic tools for it..

@@valeriataylor8337 No, Gorilla is just making random signs and you as human interpreted it like gorilla is doing marvelous, but in reality gorillas don't have any idea what they are emitatating for, because if they knew it they will teach it also to their fellow gorrillas, they imitate the signs only for foods not for learning to improve their own selves.

how do you do fellow kids?
@Trynos Bruh
For me, the point wasn't whether Koko could "speak," but was able to connect emotionally with our species beyond communication itself. The mutual compassion, love, and bond we share as genetic kin, which humans previously thought was unique among ourselves.
That's the whole point of the controversy. Was the "compassion" real or an illusion, just something we fooled ourselves into seeing? What the ape simply aping compassion?
@@guitarslim56 good point
They are no genetic kin to any human. The closest genetic kin to us is pigs, then rats
then use the word communicate, there's no talking. Parrots can talk.

Gorilla can kill human easily. But "pull a human in half" no.

How do you know someone read my comment and agreed with it?
If you're talking about that ad with the deaf girl, it's fake and intended to promote the cause. Not a real oraguntan
but then they will plan to rebel!
Here is why this would not work koko made some of her language that here caretaker had to figure out what it was.
Taking this into consideration it would only work if the two use the same sign language.
They can definitely communicate with people without reward...which you falsely claim as being impossible, then they could communicate with one another if we could figure out a way to go beyond that boundary. The main issue is probably due to the fact that along with signing, she also speaks words to koko. They probably need both to associate it with words.

*Fun fact* : Koko was given a gray kitten for her birthday in July 1984 named 'All Ball', she treated the kitten like one of her own baby, nurturing it, carrying around and even trying to nurse it at one point. Unfortunately, All Ball died after hitting by a car, research said she later signed "Sleep. Cat"
She named it “All Ball” because the kitten’ tail was very short. Kook noticed that she was missing her tail, and gave her a name that distinguished the kitten from other cats. She was shaped like a ball, not a cat, so “All Ball.”
:((
aww that's sad :c
That's a horrible story. Why didn't they take better care of the cat?

the story of Koko is interesting because she showed signs of abstract thinking (which we believe are unique to humans) such as being self aware, understand the concept of death and using signs to express concept that were not thought to her.
@S***** self awarness is much more widespread than we are led to believe. My personal theory is that all mammals, reptiles and birds are self aware and some marine animals as well.
My cat is self aware of his existence, and he recognises himself in the mirror.
@S***** sure, but cats are smart nonetheless.
No animal is able to comprhend that
@S***** orcas are dumber than cats especially big cats
Eli Malinsky | A lovely thought, but sadly incorrect. To give you an idea, young children can't recognize their own reflection. It's true our cleverest handful of fauna can display abstract thought, (the first existential question asked by an animal came from a parrot, who asked what colour it was) this is not a gift to simply project on to every animal.
It's possible your most clever cats can recognize themselves in mirrors, but you'll need to check to be certain. Place a mark on your cat's face and set it in front of a mirror. If it attempts to remove the mark, that's a definitive yes. Otherwise, you can't be sure.
Every animal doesn't have to be more human like for being intelligent, they have their own spectrum.
Ok but who said that lmao
Well you’re definitely not intelligent.
@@MrShanester117 Says the guy who think his intelligent
No need to get offended people, I'm just saying that, other animals might not be self conscious but they do have intelligence, like pigeons ability to navigate through magnetic field of earth or elephant's recognising humans or one from their families... Or even earthworms for that matter, just because they do exactly what we can do, doesn't make them less in intelligence, sure we humans can do more than them & are much more evolved but that doesn't give us any right to make them any less of a life or categorise them intelligent only when they copy one of our behaviours(which honestly is just training of mimicry and as far as I know that's definitely not intelligence)

Meanwhile on GorillaTube: 'Koko Finds Human Who Understands Sign Language! Hoo Haa Ha! Hooo! Hahaha!'
She died.

For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to
save the world through Him. Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the Name of God’s one and only Son john 3:16-18 come to know Jesus today He died on the cross for our sins and rose again, so we can live with Him forever because He loves us, by His blood He has victory over sin, death and hell amen. God Jesus The Holy Spirit love you and be with you forevermore amen God bless amen :) :)
your comment was made so much better by the chimp sounds lmao
Did you know that there is a talking gorilla (recommended)
Me: oh really, lemme find out

I haven't read 1 comment yet but I know that it is going to say Harambe.
The first one I read said harambe ok then
He never said that harambe is the same as koko he just said that they do share a similarity; being gorillas.
Your original comment read "harambe has literally nothing to do with koko" and then he replied with "Except for the fact that they're both gorillas". He was merely stating that you saying that harambe has nothing to do with koko (or is in no way similar) is wrong because they do share one similarity.
TotallyJerd that's winsten
harambe was a RAPIST im glad hes gone

As the mother of a hearing:-impaired son who learned ASL to communicate with him, watching Koko sign was an amazing and epiphanal moment for me. I read her signing as clearly as the signing of my deaf friends and my son. I was floored by the reality that she knows what she signs. Hearing people tend to dismiss her largely because they don't know/speak/understand ASL. She's not human but is surely intelligent and obviously capable of communication.

Title was misleading a bit, I thought we found Caesar's counter part. But this is still cute.
What is there not to believe? You can literally see her learning...
Yeah but it's not human level until they can ask a question, which no other animal has. Asking a question is a realisation of other people's own knowledge and experience and that they know things you don't
emani donaldson there is precedence for skepticism. People can train elephants to paint paintings, and the trainers treat it like the elephant is creating a unique picture, even though it was specifically trained to make the same painting over and over, meaning it doesn’t actually understand the abstract art it is creating. Koko is definitely more convincing though. I haven’t looked into it enough to see if she really can communicate or if she is only making gestures from classical conditioning and treats. Hard to say, it is a fascinating idea though.
emani donaldson There is no evidence she understands the meaning of te words she is forming, and she can'r form elaborate sentences.
That's why many are critical about her

Xx_death_xX 1 dead meme
Koko died in her sleep during the morning of June 19, 2018, at the Gorilla Foundation's preserve in Woodside, California, at the age of 46. The Gorilla Foundation released a statement that "The impact has been profound and what she has taught us about the emotional capacity of gorillas and their cognitive abilities will continue to shape the world." Even though Koko was 46 years old when she died, her death took staff members of the Gorilla Foundation by surprise.
She died? 😥 I didn’t know that.
Rip..koko
@@ezicarus8216 obviously it’s opposite. Koko was ensured food and health, and lack of those in the right amounts is exactly what’s stumping the average age of gorillas and most other species in nature. I think you’re thinking about mountain gorillas which has yet to be successfully held captive in zoos for more than 3 years if I remember correctly (due to stress, I think).
She died on my birthday ...sad😢
@@ezicarus8216 well, specifically for general gorilla species (mountain gorillas exempt), they indeed do live longer in captivity. In captivity they can get up to 50+ years of age, while they rarely exceed 40 in the wild. I know what you mean and this is mostly the case for mammals (at least for land dwelling animals) that migrate a lot or generally are primed to move excessively compared to their lives in zoos, but it just so happens not to be the case for gorillas.
1000 years later gorilla's will wear suit and tie and do interviews with a deep southern voice
That would be cool
Very convinced that's possible

That was sad, at the end, when Koko said that she needs more attention
Jack Shattle I wasn't arguing ... And it does matter. Koko has feelings too.... And it is amazing that they can communicate
Luca Bella Ruesch - Jack wasn't accusing you of arguing, he was talking about how the people mentioned in the video are skeptical and want to disprove everything even when the evidence is right there that Koko is able to communicate
He never said Luca was arguing. Read it again.

You don't need a decades long study to KNOW that we ARE communicating, being able to SEE it or not... ❤
If only they taught Harambe how to sign. We could have learned so much.

Its amazing to think how these animals could possibly be more intelligent than most tiktokers out there is truly incredible
That clip in beginning of koko with her mama wirh photos going back was simply beautiful and somehow so warm and almost made me cry. This is true love and God Bless them both.
Anyone who has ever owned a dog, knows humans and animals can communicate, So of course, Gorillas, Orangutans and chimps are able to communicate more.
Yeah. Anyone who has had any animal and shared a true bond really.
I came here with this thought. Doesn't matter what any one else thinks I KNOW they understand. 💁
Well... There's only one word in dog's language, "hey", but in many different tones.
Apes can learn sign language on the other hand, so actual conversation instead of just emotional communication.
What about sharks?
@@ramirodelgado4912 Sharks' language is binary. Jaw opened / Jaw closed. and then you can also add a couple modification by wiggling the tail.
