Angry Female Gorilla Hits Silverback Gorilla on The Head | The Shabani Group

#Gorilla #Shabani #Ai
Shabani, a silverback gorilla, had angered his wife, Ai, and was being chased around.
As far as I could see, Shabani didn't seem to be doing anything to Ai.
Did she think Shabani was trying to mess with her and hit him on the head?
Ai's daughter Annie saw this and was scared of her afterwards.

    I love that this family does not follow the norm. They are in captivity and do the best instinctually. Humans try to humanize gorillas rather then seek to understand. Shabani is special because he exhibits strength and care. I like when he gets the family running after him. I like when he is silly and Kiyo and Annie are also silly. Nene is not someone to get rid of because of her age. Perhaps that is the mentality of some humans. And Ai needs the space to be herself even though she does not perform like humans think she should. Love to the whole family with respect

    Maybe Ai and Shabani had an incident earlier that we didnt see.But it looks like in the end of this video, they had no hard feelings for each other.Love how Annie uses her pelvic pocket to carry her jute bag.Thx for the video!😉💜🦍

    This troop is lucky that Shabani is the leader and not his brother Haoko 🙄
  • @user-jn4uz6hn8c
    ネネさんが自分からシャバーニの隣に行く光景は珍しいと思います。
  • Todas fêmeas gorilas que eu conheço apenas nene e Ai desrespeita o líder... isso e muito triste, e ainda fico mais triste que Shabani um gorila tão bonito, gentil, brincalhão, protetor, um bom pai e não muito agressivo não é admirado pelas fêmeas ☹️ até a Annie que não tinha nada aver com o ocorrido ficou com medo da Ai. Shabani precisa ter uma fêmea que de todo amor e carinho e que respeite ele..
  • @eridan565
    Shabani is wasted on ai and nene 😒 hope he gets a new wifey soon who actually appreciates him ❤
  • @famouslegend3649
    I hope Shabani has a new wife in the future. I hope she gets along with him and guides Ai a little Ai is a good gorilla, she has a calm but dry personality...But Shabani needs a more energetic and sweet woman with him haha
  • @clarkkent0909
    Ai was mad that Nene left her to sit next to Shabani. At least Ai was moving -she is a sitter and doesn't give Shabs any loving. Shabani is phenomenal! Nene was cool in this video.

    12日は、シャバーニがアイちゃんに何かやったのか、アイちゃんが物凄い叫び声をあげながら逃げてました💦 アイちゃん、異様にお腹が出てるけど、食べ過ぎなのか、それとも…!!!
  • @amirtamboli234
    Never saw any female gorilla hit like that to any silverback
  • @thesummerof1968
    Shabani needs to show who's boss like in the early years. Shabani became very relaxed with his troop through the years. I always assumed that Ai may be autistic. Maybe Shabani knows she's different.
  • @girankenorts796
    I often wonder how captive gorillas are supposed to respect the silverback. Shabani doesn’t get to lead his crew to food and shelter nor does he have to protect his family from threats in the wild. All he can really do is break up scuffles and flex his muscles it seems. I’d be really curious to see him interact in the wild (as long as nothing bad happens to him haha but I know there’s no stopping that)

    Ai was like okay old man let’s do this 😂😂😂😂😂
