Gorilla

We go to the zoo to look at the animals. It turns out they're just as interested as we are.

It's a shame kids have to go back to school because they're missing out on these precious moments.

We like to think man is a talented species. For starters, we're capable of eating Denny's entire 'Hobbit' menu in 19 minutes flat and dominating in ping pong sans arms. There's no better male ego boost than to reminisce over such accomplishments. It turns out our hairy ancestors are talented too.

In this news segment from 1967, a baby gorilla named Joe takes a bath in England’s Twycross Zoo.

Thirteen years ago, French couple Pierre and Elianne Thivillon adopted an infant gorilla after her mother refused to breastfeed it. They named the baby great ape Digit, and have raised it like their own daughter in what is believed to be the world’s only such human/gorilla living arrangement.

Apparently gorillas like to back that thang up just as much as humans do. When this male gorilla isn’t out lounging in his habitat at The Calgary Zoo, there’s nothing he likes more than do a couple of spins in the water room and shake what his mama gave him. Talk about the evolution of dance.
