Good to see that they didn’t elect to give them a firearm to see what would happen.

A group of Gorillas is a troop...

a group baboons is a congress.

Even the animal kingdom gets it right!

Wow! That’s one of the coolest things I ever saw.
By the way, if you didn’t notice, it looks like the guy sitting there had wet his pants.

AMAZING! OMG! If I were John, I might have wet my pants with silver back just in back of me. Boy they sure liked John. Almost made him a member of the troop. Jr. Gorilla.

what would have happened if he had turned around and looked at the silverback? had his arms ripped off or what?

I have a book by Belle Benchley who was one of the first zoo keepers to try to make the captive environment of the zoo comfortable with the animals and to develop a relationship with them. One of her challenges was a huge gorilla that she had personally seen throw a 400lb log around its cage like it was nothing. She eventually befriend him and would bring him grapes. He loved them, but did not like the peals. She was awed by the fact that this massive animal could peal grapes better than she could.

Astounding video!

That large silverback could have easily ripped him to shreds!

Thanks EveningStar.
