He’s a climbing frame, he’s a trampoline, he’s a jungle gym
That baby is so friggen adorable I can see why Dad doesnt do anything
man its so obvious how we came to be from just this with small troops and evolved into little settlements then towns and finally the creatures we are today..why does that idea freak out religous people.its beautiful
That is so beautiful. How anyone could harm these majestic animals is beyond me.
He’s like, “Lions are afraid of me, but they’ll be afraid of you one day, too. Use me as a drum until that time.”
Hay que belleza esos grandes momentos monstruos como son de amorosos co. Sus bebés y protectores de sus familia amo los gorilas me encantan estos videos
But does he change diapers?
I can’t believe how wonderful they are.
That me and my children, just less fur.. my God what a smazing world…God made it perfect.. we meased it up.
Bizarre social commentary for the modern man. 😏
Damn this gorilla is an all around good guy.
The male gorilla are apparently suprisingly tolerant of the behavior of the younger memebers of their family group even if they aren't necessarily fathered them. And thus their sire more offspring than a gorilla that say wouldn't show involvement in caring for his his offspring.
Some dads could learn a thing or two from this gorilla
i realized that kids are going to be kids lol no matter what
Wonder how they keep themselves safe from poisonous snakes in this jungle
He allows it. .its his kid
He slaps for no reason
Just like chimpanzees, alpha males who show attentiveness, protectiveness, but also diplomacy and gentleness, are beloved by their troops. Another male may usurp them as leader once they are too old to be leaders, but for the rest of their lives, everyone in the troop still loves and respects him. (Read Frans deWaal’s books on primatology. Fascinating read).
These babies, all gorilla babies just love their Silverback dads it seems.
Stoicism personified
It da strangers like me
"alpha males" have left the chat
hop on pop irl
That really got me when he decided to kick things up a notch and straight-up hit dad in the face. That was great. Adorable.
I love them❤
Mmmmmm
Edit:lmao
he is sick of it!! lol
Lol baby gorillas are so funny
The first little swing away & then the roll is adorable
If u are good to your kids or the kids of a woman your dating that goes miles further than anything else in my opinion.
@0:04 the little guy is like " man !…….i cant do ANYTHING with my hair in this humidity !! "
Maybe humans can learn something new each day from the gorillas thanks such smart and intelligent animals what a good father he is with his troop love and appreciate you guys you guys rock thanks ! Joe
2:24 is so heartwarming. Sucks that not everybody sees this. They always picture everything but themselves as something aggressive and/or imperfect. We all have lives and different emotions and whether we understand them or not is not of matter.
what a mischievous brat
Dad and daughter for sho. No way he tolerates his sons slapping.
Maybe father of the year he's a good father stays with his troop take care of business and his family gorillas are very smart and intelligent animals always learning something new each day from the gorillas love and appreciate you guys you guys rock still going strong way to go ! Joe
2:20😢
Primate children will do anything to get their parent's attention. Gorillas too…
🇮🇱👌❤️👍💋🇮🇱
The music at the end at 3:02, beautiful. I wish I knew the name to buy the music.
If gorillas had Family Court, he'd see those cubs 4 hours per week
