Jamani ist höchst konzentriert und passt ganz genau auf, was das Mädchen mit den Bausteinen macht. 🥰👀 Große Familie 🥰❤
👍😁
What a fantastic video. Ktembe is a handsome guy - looks like he spends a lot of time at the gym doing bench-presses! 😂 Jamani is such a smart cookie! She was transfixed by the toys - especially when the little girl was building with the bricks. JJ seemed to lose interest as soon as he realised the toy was on the other side of the glass - or maybe because he's six, he's just too cool for toys. 😂 Gorilla and orangutan kids seem be drawn to human children - maybe they recognise potential playmates of their own age. Anyway, thank you for another wonderful treat❣
😁 as always, thanks for the feedback.
Jamina has such inquisitive eyes....watching her focused on the little girl putting up the block was so cute. Such a beautiful family group ❤️
Definitely, thanks for sharing a comment. 😁
Thanks for the commentary
👍 you are welcome. Thanks for watching my latest video and sharing a comment. 😁
This is why they learn so well they watch and observe so good!
👍 and with food provided for them they have lots of time to observe.
Jamani has a wonderful attention span! She will be a good learner if they introduce a computer or something! Ktembe has a resemblance to D’jeeco at Taipei zoo! Beautiful video!
Thank you! 😁👋
Not all gorillas are our Kintaro. lol. j/k
Hi, MySkinnydip. Remember me from Gorilla Lifes channel. I live 2 hours from this zoo. Going there in August. Hope you're doing well. Ellen

@@ellenknell9645 Kinny is a boss!😄
Thank you Larry! What a beautiful troop! I can’t wait to see more! You are the best!
👍thanks
So adorable watching the little girl playing and maybe thinking I want some of them blocks 😂❤. Thank you so much for the subtitles and the names of each gorilla it honestly helps 🎉🎉🎉
👍 thanks for sharing a comment. 😁
For the love of gorillas. 💕 We are visiting there this summer.
👍 Gorillas and Orangs are about the farthest from the entrance.
Thanks Larry! That's the best footage of Kamina, Kamoli, Kinyani, JJ, Zahra, Suzi, Cassie, Jamani, Mac, Tabibu, Ktembe I've seen in years.
Hey thanks! 😁👋
@@larrysanimalsafari Thank you. I wonder about them all the time. Did the keepers say where Nia and Moana were? Too bad you couldn't see Freddi's daughter.
I didn’t get a chance to talk to the keepers. A docent was there and shared some details about the large troop.
Great video Larry!! How interesting to see Jamani interact withe the ball and the blocks!! Would be interesting to see what our little guy would do! As always, thanks for a job well done!!
Thank you! 👋😁

Welcome! 👋. Feel free to checkout my playlist. Gorillas, orangutans, and many others. 👍😁
Did you know that there was a baby gorilla delivered by surprise there at the Columbus Zoo recently? Some news is circulating that they thought mom Sully was a male gorilla-- which I find hard to believe, but that is what is being reported. Sully is apparently the daughter of Shalia and sister to newborn Willy B. III who are in Zoo Atlanta.
Yes, it did make the news here in Cleveland. What a nice surprise for them.
❤❤❤❤
👋 👍
Beautiful!❤️❤️❤️
Hopefully they will let them have them; the enrichment may stave off boredom.
👍
Wow ~ could have watched an hour of these gorillas. Such interesting interactions & beautiful faces.
Never noticed the nuanced behavior within a troop before..
😊🌍🦍🦍❤️
👋😁
Hi Larry. Any upcoming videos of Sully and Kwame?
Hello, sorry, no plans right now to visit them. It’s a busy time for me right now.
That little human isn't so adept at stacking wooden blocks.
Did you zoom in and see that surface? It’s like the moon, little craters and bumps everywhere. Aw, she was just in first grade and had the crowd watching her. (Nervous I bet) I couldn’t stack and film at the same time, so she helped me.
Why are visitors allowed such close contact? It's invasive and teasing the baby with enrichment objects that she, herself, cannot touch, is creepy. That's the entire yard and the two troops alternate days, which means one group is indoors all day? I'm sorry, but that makes me angry. They all look so sedate...bored I'd imagine. They need a bigger environment with trees and little caves/nooks to get away from the visitors who are so close to that glass. It should be all about the gorilla and not revenue.
Compared to other zoos I thought Columbus did a nice job with outdoor exhibit. Hills, climbing space, tunnels are there/ later in the video. Alternating days outside is a bummer. Gorillas don’t spend a lot of time up in trees, Orangs do. More bush would be nice. As for close contact… I see it’s generally the young gorillas are curious and approach windows. It appears to me gorillas (primates) are drawn to human babies and toddlers too. They approach to examine kids like we do to them. The adults- don’t care too much were visiting, they see it’s just more humans and they are not interested in us. Their indoor exhibit needs a revamp but that’s up to Columbus zoo to handle.
As a child in the 70's I loved seeing the animals at the Zoo. As an adult, in the 90's-2000's, I hated seeing, especially primates and big cats, caged. While today, I still hate seeing them caged, it makes me even sadder to know that between habitat destruction and the illegal pet trade, we must cage them to help save them....people suck sometimes 😢
Yep, we can be their worst enemies (habitat destruction for so many of them)
New Gorillas sweet jamani sees sad out 🥹😭
👋😁
@@larrysanimalsafari hey Larry how are you doing 😊
Doing well, thanks. 😁
