www.aspinallfoundation.org/con... In the African jungle, conservationist Damian Aspinall, along with his daughter Tansy Aspinall, searches for Djalta and Bimms, two western lowland gorillas born at Howletts Wild Animal Park in Kent. In 2003, Djalta and Bimms were released into the forest of Gabon, West Africa as part of a conservation programme to re-introduce gorillas back to the wild. Will Damian find them? Will they accept his daughter, Tansy, who they haven’t seen for 12 years?

This is one of the most beautiful things i have ever seen in my entire 21 years of life on this cruel planet.
If gorillas 98 % genetic humans, I wonder why no one ever calls them people?
❤️ there is still hope
wait till 55 yrs up in this .. crue?l kid you aint seen nothing
Yes this is very touching!!! 💖🙂This is my dream, and i love them so much 🐒💖💖💖🇳🇴.
@@shoulders-of-giants because they aren't Homo Sapiens, therefore not people.
This video made me cry. They remembered their human family, and didn’t want them to leave. Beautiful but heartbreaking. 💕
Yes, exactly. Me too. Cried: moving, sad. Sad: they tamed and made friends with the animals. The gorillas must be a little lonely without them.
In the early ‘90’s in Florida, I had the marvelous experience of holding a baby gorilla. I’m not sure of his age, he was about the size of a 10 month old human baby on average. He had a diaper on, and sat cradled on my left hip with his arm around my neck. He was strong. I could smell his breath, not good! Lol. His eyes looked orange in the sunlight, little nostrils wet and shiny. His little fingers looked so human. He looked at me with such affection, it makes me cry even now. I held him for about 5 minutes, it was an experience I’ll never forget. They are truly beautiful creatures.
@@mchapman132 Ohhhh.. Thank you for writing about that. Great description: from breath to eyes to nostrils to arms around neck and all. Very touching. (The eyes in the sun..Amazing how you still remember it so well..)
@@cockeyedoptimista - I was an adult when it occurred. I hope I never forget the details, it was the experience of a lifetime.
@@mchapman132 A very moving experience you had. It's funny how we're so touched that they look like us: our distant cousins..
The gorillas were all like, "Stay with us in our peaceful quiet world....why do you wanna go back to your chaotic world?". Too sweet.
Even the monke’s be like “return to monke”
When you look into the eyes of some animals you see just that; when you look into the eyes of: gorillas, dolphins, & elephants you see something almost recognizable as human. It is truly beautiful.
Love❤
They are so beautiful in spirit❤️
There are times you can look into those eyes and see a beauty that is missing in many humans.
Of course, because apes share between 95-99% of our genetics. We are part of the same family. Besides chimpanzees and bonobos, they are our closest relatives.
i like what his father said..'animals were not put on this earth to entertain humans!'' so true
My eyes are wet from this beautiful video. Damian Aspinall is one of humanity's greatest representatives. I am in awe of all that he does to help endangered species.
Everett Cox he’s one of my favorites too as is Kevin Richardson aka The Lion Whisperer ... if you haven’t heard of him got to his channel it’s incredible the relationships he has with all of the animals in his care. ruclips.net/user/LionWhispererTV
I could easily be a fan of DA. Exporting animals back to Africa?
Brought a tear to my eye. Beautiful. I hope they live a long and happy life. Thanks for sharing.
If gorillas 98 % genetic humans, I wonder why no one ever calls them people?
Not crying, as you say. Dust. Dust in both my eyes. Don’t know where it came from. I’m in my house. Lol.
what??? I really don't see what good they do. Taking up space, contributing nothing but scaring people and making movies, zoos and circuses. I was at a garage sale a few years ago and they had the hands of one of these things mounted on a long piece of cherry (wood) and they were set so that they could hold a gun! it was awesome and I don't know why I didn't buy that thing. oh well maybe one day will get the chance to blast one and make my own. Hopefully there is one of its offspring around so I can make one for my son's bb gun. I hope I get the chance, getting harder now with people acting like these are great creatures and bonding the great big monkey. I would like to take out a couple myself, really bond them together with a blast from some ot buchshot or a slug, you would want a slug only if you had a pump, a one shot break action 12 gauge slug would be a mistake. you miss, you have to reload. But with glorious buckshot, those bb's spread, you don' t ev e n have to be that accurate! and that is important with these goofy sob's! you miss and have to reload, you better be quick, unless you want to be torn to pieces by one of these filthy savage beasts! i thought that was what the video was! lol really. I thought it was tips for safely taking out a couple of these stinking things!
brought several to mine
@@shoulders-of-giantsbecause they might be 98% dna like us we still aren’t them fully we are a different ape
I only wish that humans can get along this well
+IronIvory That would be wonderful
+IronIvory never gonna happen
+IronIvory Well animals don't know Religion. Maybe it is just religion that seperates people from bonding well. If by all means Religion would be forbidden and we put the same effort in knowing your neighbours and close relatives. The world could be more humain. I don't think we know a world without religion. Will it work?
patrickdb09 Wow man, someone who actually thinks for himself. I like that a lot, and have to say I agree with you. Thanks for sharing!
+IronIvory and respect all life as these humans do.
I'm convinced these beautiful creatures feel more emotions than the average human. They are so gentle and kind to these people who looked after them as babies. No doubt after some low life took their mother and fathers lives just for money. I only wish the best life for them in the jungle where they belong.
You can almost feel the compassion of these majestic creatures. How have we evolved so far as to have lost our humanity?
+Carey R. Meltz
People have a greater potential for awareness. We depress our awareness because we are nervous about what we see. In the process of depressing our awareness we lose some of our natural affection.
+Carey R. Meltz Acidosis from what we eat and narcissism?
+Bedlam Video LOL ...and a heaping tablespoon of self-entitlement.
Well said 😊😊😊
Not gonna be pessimistic but, we are more closely related to chimpanzees than gorillas. Chimpanzees are omnivores just like us (gorillas are herbivores, with occasional bug eating). Chimpanzees also participate in territorial wars, like us. Chimpanzees don't just kill other chimpanzees who enter their territory, they brutally dismember their entire body. Chimpanzees are super fucking cruel and they are more closely related to us than any other living animal. So perhaps it's not so strange that we humans also are cruel to others outside our tribe.
Oh my goodness... I have tears literally streaming down my face!!! This was one of the MOST BEAUTIFUL videos I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing this very special moment with us.
If gorillas 98 % genetic humans, I wonder why no one ever calls them people?
people who say things like that deserve to be tied to one of these filthy, freak monkeys and then be lit on fire as the things rips you apart as it tries to rip you to shreds. If that ever happens, and it most likely will, please post the video!
I've said before how magical something like this is and how they remembered Tansy. They are so intelligent!
If gorillas 98 % genetic humans, I wonder why no one ever calls them people?
Am I the only one that noticed that at 1:40 the gorilla actually thought to warn the guy with a tap on the head to duck, because of the tree !! Damn so smart !!
If only humans treated each other with the same respect as these beautiful animals treat us wouldn’t it just be beautiful!? I know my rescued dog looks at me with such deep love it always touches my heart! Tobey is a Maltipoo and his owner passed away….he was taken to a shelter to grieve. I am thankful my vet saw him, and asked if I would adopt him! The best thing ever to rescue this sweetheart! 😊
This is exactly the problem, some people simply cannot enjoy this wonderful video without leaving stupid or hateful comments. Smh.
If the humans TRULY wanted to introduce the gorillas to the wild, they would NOT have come back and interjected themselves into their "wild" life.
@@SeniorLassy What the hell does it matter to you? We all live on this planet together, which means humans and animals can befriend one another, and even go visit our animal friends if we want to. You and your liberal views are pretty arrogant! Just because they are now wild, doesn't mean that they should NEVER intervene with them again. My God, such...DUH on your part! If you had a foster brother and one day he moved to another foster family, would you think "Oh, gee, well I better not interject myself into his life again because this was only temporary" so idiotic!
What a narcissist you are. So full of yourself
If gorillas 98 % genetic humans, I wonder why no one ever calls them people?
Like how one of the gorillas kept the baseball hay
The gorillas seem so sad to see them leave it makes them even more human!
That may be the coolest animal interaction with humans I've ever seen. Totally blown away and moved deeply by seeing that video. Just amazing.
This is AMAZING they recognized her after she's grown up!! If only humans could do this the world would be absolutely perfect! Just to be reunited with a long lost family members but gorillas and just seeing how absolutely gentle they were with her!!
"Just dumb animals" MY ASS.
Clever, sensitive and loving animals.
Tell that to the Pope, whose religious doctrine regards animals as "thoughtless brutes" or "material" for human use.
@@carolames7624 Sadly this is how the few religions that I know describe animals
Religion is so cruel. It's the exact opposite of what it wants to be.
The only noise was coming from the human 🤦🏼♀️monkeys don’t have vocal cords
I think to say that they treat you all like friends is such an understatement.
You were their father, their patriarch, their leader, a very trusted and intimate one. And Tanzy is their step sister. All family. The bond was that strong...
This is so amazing. I started tearing up a little when they were hugging Tansy.
God bless you people who do this work. I could never do this, but thanks for sharing this.
If gorillas 98 % genetic humans, I wonder why no one ever calls them people?
@@shoulders-of-giants That's because "98% same genes" argument lacks some critical information; it doesn't mean they're 98% the same as humans. If you've studied basic genetics you'd know what I mean.
The point is, we even humans are different to each other but that's exactly what makes the human society unique and diverse. Being different is a beautiful thing.
Having Followed Aspinall for Over 30 years . This is the justification that his way of treating these gorgeous animals is the correct one . Of Cours Not many have The Money Land or Instinctive intelligence to share with the animals . IT TAKES A NATURAL DEDICATION and A LIFETIME to achieve what he has shown. Aspinall is also a film producer. an intelligent human being . Which there wear more like him . Instead of Futile BLING PEOPLE with WEALTH.
Gorillas and Orangutans are far better humans than humans are. We kill we fight we ruin. But gorillas and Orangutans, they love , they learn, they are beautiful and in tune with their world.
How incredibly beautiful. This moved me to tears. What a privilege. 😢❤🦍
Just beautiful.
Those gorillas remember Damian and Tansy so so beautiful wow im speechless
that's a great little story. So gentle. You can tell that the guy and his daughter care 100% about these animals also.
This gave me tears. Love is so great.
Took my breath away when they came to the riverside.
So beautiful & you do do much good in this world, with your foundations. 🦍
That is the best thing I have ever seen in my life other than the birth of my children. My heart just melted.
I am always an absolute mess after watching these videos. 😂
I adore primates. So I am grateful that people like the Aspinall’s are giving these intelligent, compassionate, beautiful and majestic creatures the opportunity to live a natural wild life. ❤
Reintroduction of animals into the wilds is very successful and sometimes it is heartwarming. We encourage everyone to get involved with your local conservation program and be a custodian of nature...
This is the most beautiful marvelling video I’ve ever seen!!
I have never been so moved in my life what beautiful animals
I bet a hug from a gorilla is amazing 🥰
How beautiful!!!! That encounter brought tears of Joy to my eyes and a slight sadness that they had to depart again. Hopefully they will reunite again in the future.
BEAUTIFUL STORY and VIDEO!! THANKYOU SO MUCH FOR LOVING THEM AND SHARING WITH US!! GOD BLESS YOU ALL!! XOX
I like your family and I love gorilla. Thank you amazing wonderful vedeo.
Beautiful! Watched this many times. Makes you realize what's important.
Amazing! What a beautiful experience that will last for a lifetime!
This video and the one of Tansy's mother visiting released gorillas in the wild is so extremely moving. Such gentle and loving creatures!
This makes me cry every single time I watch it. So amazing.
Absolutely Amazing, it's great to see rich people do something honourable like this, helping out endangered species, doing something to fix what the incompetent side of humans have severely compromised on our planet, they are quite passionate about their foundation. I know they have their critics, but I can see they know what they are doing. I hope to be able to interact with gorillas one day, they are great mammals that deserve to be able to thrive in this world without threat from our incompetent apes.
This actually made me cry. It breaks my heart when these beautiful creatures are killed, thank goodness for the Aspinall Foundation.
I don’t think there is anything more beautiful than that bond between the wild and humans.. ❤
These gorillas are one of the most beautiful creatures I've ever seen !
If there is any doubt that we are one, this video should have crushed that doubt forever.
If gorillas are 98 % genetic humans, I wonder why no one ever calls them people?
Damn, this just made me tear up lol I sure hope the Gorillas are doing good today and Damian & Tansy make frequent visits. They look so lonely there
that feeling when an animal is better than a person
The Aspinall Foundation does wonderful work. God bless 🙏🏼
I'll never get bored of watching this amazing video. What fantastic work the Aspinal Foundation do
Simply Beautiful is every way.
these videos should be shown and studied by children at school, everywhere... ...in this form there is the greatest wisdom on Earth - we are all one...
If only humans would have treated the lowland Gorillas this well from the start. ❤️🦍❤️
Я очень люблю этих умных животных, очень близких к людям ...Конечно, жизнь на природе не сравнить с жизнью в клетках и вольерах, но у меня всегда слезы, когда они смотрят вслед опять уходящим людям, которые заменили им в детстве родителей ...
How precious. Animals make the best humans and they are a lot smarter.
Well.. that just filled me heart with so much love I don't know what to do with it all! :-)
+Red Shamrock give me some
+Red Shamrock give me some
yes its like a bubble inside me, will it burst?
So beautiful!
Just beautiful.
Yes it truly is
How so beautiful for more done 12 years they see to each other again.
This made me cry!
😭😭😭😭 so lovely, they are gentle giants
I am crying and crying seeing the love in between the human and the animal. ..thought even the animal understand the love and caring why .. why .not our humen understand the love and caring..to each other..my..my..touched my heart thanks and bless you guys for this video....
One of THE most amazing videos on RUclips. This just goes to show what a magical planet we live on and what it could actually be like if the human race as a whole acted in this way ❤
It must have been bittersweet seeing them in their own environment and to be accepted with great love means you did right by them well done you
I just watched a special crocodile hunter diaries with Steve Irwin when he came to Howlettes and these gorillas were going to Africa and I felt so sad for Damian, his wife, but especially sad for his daughter Tansy crying because she was worried they would be killed in Africa and they were like siblings for her that she grew up with. I did a google search to see if like Bindi Irwin, Tansy has continued to be involved with her fathers life’s work and legacy. I was so excited to find this video and see the 2 young gorillas recognize and still have such love and affection for both Damian and Tansy. It was beautiful to see!!!! Thank you for all of the work you all do helping these gorillas as well as the other animals to breed and also go back to the wild and to have babies born in the wild to the gorillas that were born in captivity is incredible.
Absolutely fantastic. We’re close to them in the evolution spectrum. Animals are a wonder.
So touching. Thank you for sharing this and thank you for what you have done for Djalta and Bimms. You're a great man and you have a great daughter. Giving me hope in humanity.
Finally a video that doesn't show them just being thugs and rapping about violence, the lack of "entertainment" has made them so much more peaceful and happy. Media is ruining America.
No words to express the respect i feel..u r the embodiment of everything that Christ wanted Christians to b.hats off sir.for being an inspiration
the bonds we can create with animals is seriously amazing. always gets to me.
who needs humans when you got these animals that love you no matter what
I never thought that Gorilla's could be so gentle
This world can be a Beautiful place. Sometimes
Such beautiful beings Djalta and Bimms.
I think if more people worked and earned their livelihoods through such beautiful pursuits that really make a difference, we wouldn't see the rates of depression,anxiety and suicide that we see with most of us living in modern cities pursuing 9-5 corporate careers. I do think maybe humans are meant to stay in balance with nature, rather than completely cut off from the natural world in concrete mega cities pursuing accumulation of more and more material wealth, and still feeling empty on the inside.. I'm thinking how meaningful it would feel to work with an organization like Aspinall Foundation. Keep up the beautiful work!
I've seen this before, but it guts me every time. The bonds between differnt animal species are beautiful. Every single animal on this panet has the right to live their lives in peace and unmolested by humans. We are all animals and we have so much comparable biology and genetics with these great apes and so much to learn from the animals kingdom. And yet their lives are continuously threatened by the human animal, the most dangerous and destructive creatures on the planet.
This video will always stay with me.
Your work is inspirational and a great example. Thank you.
These videos always warm my heart
Awwww that is so awesome they remembered them after all those years
I come back and watch this from time to time, just to remind myself how amazing our world is because these days it's hard to have faith in that.
can't help but cry every time I see this video
I have no money to donate sir....but may God bless you and your family for your worderful work.
Aspinall family gets a lot of criticism but what you have done here is amazing ,well done to you
The sweetest video I’ve seen in a long time. What a blessing.
Absolutely phenomenal. 😢
What a stark comparison of the wars today and this simple expression of love and acceptance. Examples of how it could be.
Just beautiful glad they are free but the reuion was just breath taking
They must trip out when you show up and call their names. They must be like oh nobody has called me that in years! They understand English as well .
Omg this bought tears to my eyes how lovely 😢
So amazing, this is how the world should be
This is beauty. A true beauty.
I want to see more videos like that!
It's safe to say they are more Human then we are.
Ah, every time I watch something like this I can not stop to cry. Sometimes I wish I could be allowed to live in jungle with wild creatures and experience the Earth life with them rather then human who is just so toxic.
3:45 is amazing and then with his daughter how gentle and embracing they were … amazing
ffs just shed a tear over that .. beautiful.
How unbelievably moving! And to think he's afried of a feiend. I pick the right friends!
This just made me cry.
