We really need to start giving animals more credit. I'm pretty sure that all mammals have a limbic system, so of course they remember things and feel the same range of emotions we do.
Wow, people are entitled. Waaah, I only saw a picture of a magical moment, I want moving pictures. I deserve moving pictures, make the pictures move for me, I'm important.
@@Kitties_are_pretty One would expect to watch a VIDEO on UA-cam, not photos. There's no reason their reunion couldn't have been filmed. Why are so many Joshuas such morons lol
i believe i share 99% . i can bench press 900 pounds , curl a good 300 and i have a 2 inch dick . also i love bananas . and grass. and i have lotsa lotsa back hair .
they might be acting as if they had not been separated for three years, but three years is three years and the zoo had NO right to split them up in the first place. These animals can't be used for your children's entertainment. They are abusing the animals in their care. This is a prime example of the type of abuse often employed. Three years is a long time to be apart and a lifetime in prison is unbearable to think about.
Lol +viaductdreams wouldn't want that, we might accidentally breed too much and take over the planet again. We wouldn't want to put your little ape gods in their proper place, would we?
"Gorillas share 97% of our DNA, are so similar to us." "Derp, that must mean we are related." Right. 3% of the 100% makes ALL the difference in this case.
why the thumbs down on this one. I thought it was beautiful and about time people realize that animals are not that different than humans. They love their families too.
If these people even bothered to do their research on gorillas, then they would know that gorillas are social by nature. It's not "strange" behavior for them. Humans are not the only species who value family.
After all these years later long time no see it's great seeing the gorillas getting together such smart and intelligent animals always learning something new each day from the gorillas thanks appreciate you guys thanks ! Joe
All animals have feelings, emotions, memory, people have known this for a long time, that's why humanity has to treat animals as sentient beings, no more ignorance.
People think that because animals cannot reason with humans that they are stupid animals are smart (in their own ways) and have their own ways of reasoning with each other just because we do not understand we should not judge but keep an open mind
@@LionEntity Depends. Mountain gorillas in Rwanda are a different species of gorilla than these two in the video. Western lowland gorillas, the kind seen in zoos, live in countries such as Cameroon (That's where zoo collectors used to ship them in from back in the day).
elk832 not quite, a hypothesis is something to "doubt" as it has yet to be passed through scientific rigor, and upon passing said rigor, it becomes a theory. a theory is synonymous with "law." for example, the "theory" of gravity is the same as the "law" of gravity
***** it means that doubting a theory isnt a great idea unless youre accomplished in that area your doubting. for example, im no physicist and thus i am in no place to doubt physics theories
"Theory" and "law" are not synonymous. They are independent terms for a reason. There is no "theory" of gravity-- gravity is a law. We can observe and test the theory of gravity, "proving" it's existence and validity. We cannot prove evolution. We cannot test it. Now, we can observe microevolution, which is certainly closer to being a law than anything else, but origin-of-life aspects of evolution are not provable. Even so, many of us still accept the theory of evolution as truth, because it's the most likely explanation we have. To be dishonest and pretend as though it is undeniable fact, however, is not only grossly incorrect, but also shines a poor light on the integrity of scientific study, as a whole. The entire purpose of science is to question things until we find "truth" (or the closest thing to it). If we didn't, we'd still believe our planet was flat, among other disproven beliefs. You don't have to be an expert in the field -- you just have to be willing to learn. In fact, many of humanity's most important discoveries were made by people studying something that wasn't within their area of expertise. That all being said, this entire thing is nullified by the fact you brought up evolution in relation to gorillas as compared to humans. We did not evolve from gorillas, so why draw the comparison? Other animals are capable of these same types of behavior, including creatures much less intelligent than primates.
+Lemurness Evolution is a fact that is explained by theory. The genetics we use are shared by all living organisms on this planet. We have mass amounts of genetic, DNA, fossil and embryological evidence to support it. In science it doesnt get any better then a theory.
Ever heard of Christian the Lion ? People think animals are dump and stupid. Just cause they don't have a language we don't understand. They're 150% times smarter than most humans nowadays.
❤❤😂😂😅😅😅😅😊 i will take them to lunch or dinner and treat them as long as they don't mind leaving the tip appreciate a good laugh we laugh and learn and benefit from the gorillas they make good parents and grandparents and stepparents and uncles and aunties and brothers and sisters they have feelings and emotions and there moments like anyone else right they are very smart and intelligent animals love and respect you guys thanks its great seeing 2 brothers getting back together great job much love and respect to the gorillas instead way to go very impressed !!!! Joe
People that witness Gorillas up close learn to appreciate how much they care about each other then they spend money for their protection. They are losing their lives and habitat in the wild due to human intrusion on their territory by logging roads.
Are you f---ing kidding me? Hasn't anyone else here seen the UA-cam video of the daddy gorilla flinging the baby gorilla across the room and killing him??? BRUTAL!
I still don't understand why it shocked people so much that we're not the only creature on this earth having feelings. Seriously, animals were on this earth way before us. Some have survived for millions years. And yet, we doubt their capacities.
You can actually see them smiling. Amazing.
We really need to start giving animals more credit. I'm pretty sure that all mammals have a limbic system, so of course they remember things and feel the same range of emotions we do.
"Lets just take pictures instead of filming it"
They didn't have cameras back then, back then they only could shoot pictures from an old boat from WWII
+Ioganstone hahahahaha
+dcos5 I know right, fucking slide show bullshit.
D-rex lol Exactly!!!!

Animals have feelings and emotions just like humans do...that was very touching to watch them embrace one another....glad they are reunited.
And humans are animals so it makes sense.
Actually they don’t. Not just like humans it is more of a stimulus response.
@@k9m42 not true
They don't have a video of the actual meeting? Only photographs? Really?
Yeah,that's why they dump 2mn of completly unrelated images...
it's the tv news !
so great.
My thoughts exactly. How lame!
Wow, people are entitled. Waaah, I only saw a picture of a magical moment, I want moving pictures. I deserve moving pictures, make the pictures move for me, I'm important.

this made me cry! Haven't spoken with my sister in almost a year because of our differences, maybe now I'll make amends!!
I hope you did. :)
"It's just like two family members coming together again." It is two family members coming together again. Humans don't have a monopoly on emotions.
Their both like, "eyyyy, nigga! Haven't seen you since yo left tha hood."
They're* I find it funny that I am correcting a grammar Nazi.
Congratulations, you corrected me. What did you prove?
KrispyLegend69 I was just saying it's funny because you have a grammar Nazi logo as your picture. It's just sort of ironic.
Lol yeah, you have to make a mistake here or there.
Quentin Smith your awsome
They share 97% of our DNA yet we keep them in cages for our amusement. Awesome.
i believe i share 99% . i can bench press 900 pounds , curl a good 300 and i have a 2 inch dick . also i love bananas . and grass. and i have lotsa lotsa back hair .
thexophguy They might have more intelligence though.
mgpime no i can beat any of them at checkers . k ? bai
thexophguy but they are better spellers
and only they would give a fuck about spellcheck critics.
Why are we surprised they remember eachother?
Thomas Mitchell You nailed it.
It's 2015, and these Disney goofs are still fucking anthropocentric boneheads.
Yowzoe This video was posted in 2012...
Thomas Mitchell Silverbacks are extremely territorial. The risk was that the dominant male could have considered the other to be a threat first.

+manoogianation Surpriseception
Lovely to think they have been reunited and are so happy to be together
I'm so happy for the brothers may their life together be HEALTHY, HAPPY,and WONDERFUL.GORILLAS are very SPECIAL and BELOVED by me.
Good thing you fucking ripped them apart in the first place.
Wow! You sure told them, Keyboard Kommando!
+Boo Ninny Still "Keyboard Kommando" is fucking right.
wouldn't you recognize your brother too, even after 3-4 years?
+Belkis Martinez havent seen mine in 6 years, im sure id still recognize him.
so you spect this animal to have the same long-term memory capacity as the most intellectually advanced creature on earth?
+Tomi Figueroa if they share 97% of our Dna
+Christopher McGovern yet they can't make a spear for shit so that dna is mostly from how we look.
+goman coman what.. I.. Ok
I am glad the two brothers are back together again.
Thanks,for keeping them together!!! GREAT STORY!!!
too bad this encounter happened before video was invented, hence the still shots.
i know right?

Amazing how animals are, when they meet up after years apart, got this bright faced SMILES and like hey, where you been???? It's the coolest🐘🐒🐘🐒🐘🐒🐘🐒🐘🐒
THEYRE LIKE..........HAVE YOU SEEN MOM?
After watching some of these you cant help but be reminded what savage beasts we humans truly are.
Love their smiles!
why the thumbs down on this one. I thought it was beautiful and about time people realize that animals are not that different than humans. They love their families too.
That’s great news for the brothers, they should never have been separated to begin with! Thank You for reuniting them! A’ho
Brotherhood is just amazing
Wow these brothers look totally diffrent.. ha..look at it smiling!! So happy!!! I hope they got to stay together!!!
Why didn't they just VIDEO-RECORD it? Instead they simply choose to snap a couple PICTURES? Who takes PICTURES of an event of this magnitude???
JUST LOOK AT THEIR "SMILES"!!!!
why is alf so much smaller than his brother?
maybe hes younger? =D
The younger brother just reached puberty and the older is already a full grown silverback.
"Man, if you did an ultrasound on me right now, you would see my heart...... going very fast." *BOOOOOM!!!*
Family is everything!!! 🐒💕🐵❤
I'd rather have seen the film of these boys being reunited than some journalists waffling about it.
Aww, that was sweet.
If these people even bothered to do their research on gorillas, then they would know that gorillas are social by nature. It's not "strange" behavior for them. Humans are not the only species who value family.
The reporter jumping. Calm down, he couldn't have "grabbed you" through a 5cm hole!
Also shows how our actions hurt them, by tearing their families apart!
Why didn't they VIDEO TAPE IT?
I know zoos want animals, however, it is sad that families are separated from one another. How lovely to see these two brothers reunited.
no vid of meeting? even a cell?? OPPS sorry to change the subject
this stuff make me a 17 year old boy cry like a baby
LOVE this! Sweetness overload! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Is anyone really surprised that a great ape, characterized by having great memory skills, would remember a family member?
:(((( why do we keep animals in cages. ugh it's so unjust and so depressing.
sometimes zoos are the only place they are left, safe from horrible people
It's either that or being gunned down by some 6'3 bald white dude in a camo vest
+Sly Tendencies pretty much.
+A vS Zoo's Aren't so bad, I look at them to be more of a natural cage with less bars and more grass, beds, and homie-like feel instead.
Go release them back into the wild if you don't like it, which I know you won't!
People don't realize they are capable of carrying on normal conversations if given the opportunity to learn sign language.
they didn't think to video it? how stupid, pictures don't show it well enough
Brothers "Acting like they have never been apart", yeah fighting and insulting each other
Just as human brothers can and do.
homies unite
Good point. take out the manchester in manchester united and change it to homies.
Sly?
meh
o.o
ahahahaha thatw as hilarious
After all these years later long time no see it's great seeing the gorillas getting together such smart and intelligent animals always learning something new each day from the gorillas thanks appreciate you guys thanks ! Joe
It's 2:17 am. What am I doing with my life.
Hope you figure that out soon.
What are you doing with your life?
wilson0213 Did you ever figure it out?
In 2012 nobody had the genius thought to video the occasion. Brilliant. Something tells me that we're not as smart as we think we are.
No video footage? What is this? 1BC?
Omg, I never knew Jesus invented the video camera #themoreyouknow
Heartwarming. They are more HUMAN than we can ever be.
I hate poor animals living in a cage! If a human being is been holding in a cage, that's jail.
Do you exist in a vacuum?
Aren't we all just living in a cage?
***** Not really.
Because they would die in the wild.These animals were bred in captivity and have no survival skill to make it in the wilderness.
Big gorilla: hey bro, long time no see. y... y.. you brought the stuff. Little gorilla: Money first, then we'll talk. 😅
Wot? No war? No carpet bombing with Agent Orange?
All animals have feelings, emotions, memory, people have known this for a long time, that's why humanity has to treat animals as sentient beings, no more ignorance.
Empty the cages!!
+Barbara kazyaka
So they can go extinct in the wild?
Miserible life or death. Choose!
kinda too late to empty the cages. They already destroyed their homes.
Yeah, so they can occupy your empty head! Fuck, I hate people like you!
Animals have more humanity than humans
So loving. ❤❤❤

you and everyone that thumbed you up is fuckin stupid
Looks like they get along better than half the human families I know.
