      I saw that, I was laughing so hard, you can read his thoughts. He was totally looking for the Zoo Keepers "I don't know what to do here bro... if he comes at me or my kids, you know I gotta smash him... you better get in here..."

      Yeah and more importantly _neither_ animal wanted to beef with each other. You’ll notice that when the dog turned his head to the side, the silverback didn’t advance and backed off. Most if not all non-human primates view prolonged eye contact as a threat or a challenge, so when the dog looked away, the gorilla saw that he wasn’t trying to fight and signaled the dog wasn’t a threat. I’m grateful this story has a happy ending for both parties, I was nervous this story was gonna end like Harambe’s.

    The main troop (Winston family) was in the back bedrooms behind the tan wall. The gorillas that were out in the enclosure were Franklin ("Frank" 14) and Monroe (11) part of the Winston family, a bachelor troop. Both are still considered "black backs". Even though Frank is still a boy he is 400lbs (his dad Paul Donn 450+lbs) and if he wanted to catch the dog he would have. I've followed Frank since he was born, and knowing his personality he just wanted to chase the dog out of the enclosure mostly. Looking at the video there are periods where both Frank and the dog stop and stare at each other. If Frank wanted to catch the dog he would have. It may not look like it here, but Frank's actually got a rather cheeky personality:

      @@1neAdam12 whether you choose to help an animal or person it doesn’t matter as long as you’re helping someone. A kind act is a kind act no matter who it’s for. I don’t if you’ve noticed but people kind of suck. All we do is hurt each other, animals and the planet. We’re really not that special.

    This proves that dogs are smarter than people - he doesn't look the gorilla in the eye, humbles himself with his tail down, but head up, not cowardly

      A dog jumping into a gorilla enclosure proves he's... smart?
      You wanna think about that for a second?

      It's so amusing when people anthropomorphize animals.
