Most will say that “he has no concept of freedom because he was captive-born”. These gorillas might not know about the jungle but they’re intelligent enough to know that they’re prisoners.
Yes you are so right, Shabani knows when he is being stared, at...and the noise omg. I feel so sad for this Family, esp when you see how beautifully the D'jeeco Family is living in Tapaie Zoo Taiwan in such a lush, tranquil natural and large enclosure. They are a thriving, happy, healthy Gorilla Family there with two little babies. This sadly compares to a Prison with humans staring and shouting all day at these Majestic Gorilla's.
Wow...I was practically dumbstruck when Shabani raised his right arm & shooed away Ai...& she knew exactly what he meant...I'm thinking maybe he needed his afternoon nap, or 'had a headache,' or was still hungry... *: )*
@@ameliaford5636 oh yes I love Jabali (baby J) and Ringo they are both just like Tayari and Iriki. Both boys keeps the whole D’jeeco family on their toes.
@2:33 she feels rejected..... "Hey, girl, you're gorgeous, don't feel sad, he's just playing a game on you to make you more interested in him. Jeez, girl, you have such a good taste, Shabani is gorgeous "
I dunno, Ai doesn't seem to be courting him here. I think she was more interested in what he was eating, lol. It's a very common interaction between gorillas even when food is abundant to stare closely at another gorilla's face while they eat. Courting from females is much more noticeable. Their lips purse, they move in rigid, almost dance-like steps, then "kiss" the silverback's side by leaning in close, rolling on their heels. If Ai was courting, it was half-hearted at best, so it's no wonder Shabani wouldn't reciprocate. Just another day in Higashiyama Zoo, so to speak.
After what Ai did to Annie, he has never mated with her. He knows where babies come from. I was torture for Shabani to have to look through bars to see his beloved daughter.
Sometimes Shabani looks as if he has the weight of the world on his shoulders or he’s in deep existential thought. I find myself wondering just what is going through his handsome head. He’s got a lot on his mind. His son is fooling around with every female there in the enclosure, even his own Mother. I really enjoy watching your videos of these sweet creatures It has allowed me to see just how much more gentle Gorillas are than Chimpanzees. If I could influence anything at all I’d be sure to get them a much bigger and nicer home. But, I’m sure the zoo is doing all they can. Lately though it seems as if their lovely family is out of balance.
Shabani knows by now that Ai will not mate with him. She flirts and he try's but they are just too much like brother and sister. Ai having Annie was just because Ai was very very young and was not big like she is now to fight him off. She is a very big Lady Gorilla and gentle but if pushed she even makes me scared and I'm thousands of miles away.
Por favor, que los devuelvan donde estaban! Desde que están en este sitio, Shabani está deprimido. No hay mas que verle... En qué pensaban los jefes de este zoo? Está adelgazando. Triste. Ya no juega tanto para que le persigan ni está tan maravilloso. Se sienteencerrado. Se van a cargar a Shabani!!
Возможно это из-за того, что первый ребенок у Ай был был мертвым, а второго она отвергла, так что его воспитанием занимались сначала смотрители, а затем сам Шабани, и он больше не рассматривает ее как мать. Шабани обычно очень игривый и общительный с Ай, они немало времени проводят вместе, но это всегда напоминало что-то вроде первого неловкого свидания, когда они буквально держаться за ручки, или отношения старшего брата и сестры.
That enclosure and many more in Japan are strictly made for human needs and not for the gorillas, who have to live there 24/7. Unfortunately most people on these comment boards can careless because they’re entertained by watching captive gorillas. Most will say “ zoos conserve these species” and my question is how, when they’re not even supposed to be indoors and having human contact? Conserving them should mean that they(the gorillas) should not be outside their native habitat, whether in a sanctuary, semi-wild or wild environments .
Beautiful shape, Shabani. Strong and gorgeous as always. Be patient, Ai. He's just playing hard to get. It's his turn now, I guess hahaha I'm hopeful that we will have a new member in family next year, if you know what I mean. Ai was to young before, now she's ready, but has to be acept by Shabani again. In the moment, he only has eyes for Nene. I love this family.
@@aquarianlight1880 Yeah, I know.But they did that because she wasn't ready to be a mom.She was to young. Now Nene is to old and Ai is finally ready.Soon enough she will be pregnant again.I understand why they decided todothat.The health of the family is priority.They know the family better than anyone.So I believe they did this for Ai.I can't wait to see a newborn gorilla in Shabani's family. Good thoughts only. 😆😉
@@raphaferreira6222 I also think one of the major reasons Ai is on contraceptive is bc there’s suspicion that Nene may have killed Ai First baby out of jealousy..Ai 2nd pregnancy was Annie..So she did give birth before.Yes Ai was a bit young and couldn’t take care of Annie or protect her from Nene.So Shabani stepped in to protect Annie as a mommy and daddy..This is why Annie and Shabani are so close.
@@tiyahisrael yeah, there's that too. I believe we will see a newborn soon. Maybe not as soon as I wish, but soon enough. Ai is an amazing female gorilla, there's no one like her. Let's hope for the best of the family, as always. Loving the chatting 😊
He needs a third wife.Ai will never mate with him,he knows that.Or has Ai matured after the Anne dissaster(love anne)to accept a baby.Time will tell.Wat age is Ai 18 mabey?.🇨🇦❤
Watching this old video Shabani an Ais relationship is off. When he’s in the mood she’s not an vice versa their not on the same page. It’s been 10 years since Ai had Annie, it’s strange that neither are really inclined to mate. Shabanis brother Haoko is a horn dog always mating. Wish the two were closer a new baby would be good for the group
ESPOSA?????? Por favor, esos son comentarios tontos. Los animales no tienen esposas, no se besan, no se rigen por parámetros humanos. Un gorila macho puede aparearse con varias hembras, si están en celo. Por lo menos en libertad. Pero hablar de esposa, marido, es una ridiculez
@@maurachavez835 La palabra animala no existe en el idioma español. Los animales no responden a las categorías humanas. Son machos o son hembras y no esta mal ni es mala educacion referirse a ellos de esa manera. El gorila macho se aparea con la gorila hembra y esta bien dicho.
He's frustrated 😤 he cannot mate with Ai because of the circumstances. Ai is on an IUD. I don't know what they are doing for her hormones? Nene is the Alfa female, watching them all the time and could possibly attempt to kill Ai's baby. That's if, she where allowed to have one. Nene was born in the wild, so she can or may be dangerous. It's unnatural and a calamity!! Poor Shabani is maybe a little depressed. Because of the contraceptive, Ai doesn't give off any estrogen signals for him to go ahead and mate. It's a catastrophe!!! Zoo keepers do something to help them!!! Ai and Shabani are such beautiful specimens as far as gorillas go. It's such a shame.
Oh wow..This is sad..I heard the horrible unfortunate story of Ai’s first baby.It’s suspected Nene killed the baby out of jealousy..They may need to remove Nene
@Ana Arteaga No really..If Shabani has lost interest in Ai as a couple,Nene is the major factor and has a lot to do with what’s going on here.I think you may need to go back and really research the history of the Shabani Gorilla family..Even If mother nature was allowed to take her course,Nene would not allow it,also there’s a concern that if Ai mate and become pregnant,it’s a possibly that Nene’s jealousy will cause harm,even death to the baby,For this reason Ai is on birth control,thus disrupting the natural process of mating and procreation to take place between Shabani and Ai.
@Ana Arteaga I do not know if you are aware or not, but Shabani has always had to protect Annie, Ai's daughter. Nene never accepted her, and Shabani more or less brought Annie up. Maybe it had to do with Nene wanting her son to be higher up in the hierarchy. Shabani never let Nene get to Annie and would reprimand her sternly. Ai is definitely on contraceptives. Why, I don't think we will ever truly know. Ai apparently had a previous miscarriage before Annie came along. That to me is suspicious!!!
Nene is not jealous of Ai 🙅🏼♀️. She is the top female of the family and that cannot be disputed. Being jealous of your husband's youngest and most beautiful wife is a human feeling, not an animal one. Nene loves Ai and Ai respects Nene.
Depressed that the problem, they wasn't created to be in a cage, that's the problem with man, man always wants to control and it sad they have to be living like this, man your day is coming to an end these are ALMIGHTY GOD CREATION free them
I've rejected like 7 girls before, because I can't do it unless I like them so much I'd marry them. However the more you like a girl the less they like you back, so I'm stuck at a stand still. I'm happy about my choices, more disappointed in humanity.
Most likely bored to death .poor buggar probably sick of sitting behind class .these animals should be out in the jungle .not living on concrete just for people’s Entertainment.pretty sad actually.and so the so called zoo can make money .no wonder I’m starting to hate people .selfish people all fir money .I hope you people sleep well off night time .
Seems like these poor gorillas want to escape from the view of the human animal. Don’t blame them at all
I was thinking the same thing.. I started to notice, Shabani seems withdrawn. Not his usual playful self..🙁
Most will say that “he has no concept of freedom because he was captive-born”. These gorillas might not know about the jungle but they’re intelligent enough to know that they’re prisoners.

You can always tell with Shabani’s face when he’s in a mood!
He’s bored out of his blooming mind!! How bout a little freedom!!!
😂🤣@6:40 Ai walks off and shakes her head like “I can’t believe he doesn’t want this”😂🤣😂
Shabani:(smiles) crazy-girl😂🤣
😁😁😁😁😁😁
Poor Shabani seems off. Stressed even😣
Sha ani has a nice 😊 smile
Wow...I was practically dumbstruck when Shabani raised his right arm & shooed away Ai...& she knew exactly what he meant...I'm thinking maybe he needed his afternoon nap, or 'had a headache,' or was still hungry... *: )*
Maybe he has a headache. Funny how she keeps inviting him and he ignores her. He even shook his head no. It really is funny
I love to watch Shabani family,& have since there last home.I have never seen Ai approach him?🇨🇦❤
WOW.
Shabani “ I’m just not that in to you” 😂😂 you’re such a tease
Shabani He has lost interest in his wife or it must be the heat right now...
It's very handsome and strong my favorite gorilla
I like how she strutted by him showing her stuff. Lol. He still wasn’t interested
they are so lovely❣️
Annie has such skinny little legs!
He gave her the "I have a headache" look, and waved her away.
👍
Brilliant video. Ty
hes afraid of Nene! lol
He looks preoccupied 😮
He looks like why am I stuck in here
He must have a headache today..🤣
He is a handsome gorilla yes but to me Momotaro takes the cake 🎂
Well they they are both handsome!! I think D’jeeco is great!!!

She has given him many signals ,yet if it's not coming from him no action .

Shabani just built different, he ain't no simp
Concrete cage. You need to fix this place up. I’d be depressed too if I had to live there.
@2:33 she feels rejected..... "Hey, girl, you're gorgeous, don't feel sad, he's just playing a game on you to make you more interested in him. Jeez, girl, you have such a good taste, Shabani is gorgeous "
She has nothing to do with him when she has an infant so why give her another one
Shabani’s just not into her today. 🦍♥️ it’s funny around 6:40 Ai seems to shake her head as if to say ‘what’s wrong with him?’ Lol. 🦍♥️
Shabani says maybe sometimes you're just not in the mood ya know? 🤣
Poor guy. We all have those days where u just seem kinda down. He will snap out of it
Слишком маленький вальер,им тесно,они скучные такие,что разбежаться негде.
Poor thing, he acts like he is under the weather

Ok I have seen a couple videos of Shabani looking stressed or something
He is like Genki, she doesn't want Momotaro 😀!
Hello 👋 Handsome Big Guy
SHABANI 👍 You have a beautiful
Family 50 Beats a minute 🥰👍👍
Aloha From Hawaii 🙏👋🤗😘🙋🏻
Love shabani:) lol
Shabani rejects Ai because he saw her flirting with the keeper
Maybe Shabani just isnt feeling to well today.
Cooling rain will come soon.
My poor boy sahabani.. actually when sahabani want ai,ai always hurt his feelings,may be he knows that ai just flirting with him lol
He seems hungry. If hungry he won’t be interested in his wife lol. Feed a man and then he gives attention lol
Видимо накануне повздорили между собой)))
Maybe he needs a new wife!
Not if he makes babies with her, he is shunned it seems when there is an infant

No not true. It is because she is on contraceptives birth control and has been for many years. This decision by the zoo is unethical.
In the old enclosure Shabani took Ai's and she put the run to him lol
He feels used lol. Or he feels 2 kids are enough
Por favor, que los devuelvan donde estaban!
Desde que están en este sitio, Shabani está deprimido. No hay mas que verle...
En qué pensaban los jefes de este zoo?
Está adelgazando. Triste. Ya no juega tanto para que le persigan ni está tan maravilloso.

Se van a cargar a Shabani!!
Ой, ешкин кот, глаза такие человеческие! Аж страшно. У домашних животных совсем другой взгляд!

Maybe he needs a bigger more natural enclosure. As natural as possible for being man made. It's a bloody concrete jungle they're in.
