Stay away from Liam Neeson silverback's kids.
people always compare humans to gorrilas saying how humans should be more like them and "peaceful" but i wonder how people would respond if a mom gets with a new man and the man decided to kill all her baby children just to end the previous father gene pool
.
Imagine having a fully grown male silverback as backup bouncer at a club…
Justice for Harambe
he threatened to kill his family? I think he also called the other silverbacks mom a slut. Oooh Weee, what a tense situation oh boy oh my. hooo weee
Baby gorillas are the cutest little things. I just want to kiss their little noses ♡
Gorilla musing at 0:20, "you're so skinny and pale and what the hell is that thing stuck to your face?"
He seems to defend them against any kind of cleanliness as well. These things stink like nothing you have ever smelled. And not like cocoa butter and jerry curl juice either.
Very cute looking babies with their mommy’s big daddy nearby baby is very cute little boy or girl thank you for sharing. Bless you all .
0:33 I can hear my mama em now oh lord the baby
Just like an human father would do.
I wanted to see a fight
Imagine the film crew sitting in a tree with a silverback running 1 meter below you.
The selfish genes.
Wow how i wish most men in the world was just like that its a shame u have animals that care more about there family than humans smh
The insects flying around. Jeez.
The world would be a better place if all human dads were so protective of all children . Children are our future they need our protection.
Gooooo Dad🦍💞
Such beautiful animals it's a joy to watch them in the wild!! How can anyone harm such a caring family animal?
Defended what? Nothing happened….
Cutest baby in animal kingdom goes to:
either elephant or gorilla
Devoted and loving dad…🤗🤗
when the baby fell off his daddy's back that was funny lol
The Obonobo family.
Daddy Barry the heroic defender!
Apparently nature has no issues on gender ROLES. The same cannot be stated about species in decadence and confusion, namely, humans.
That’s some toxic masculinity
So what happened? Did the dad got killed?
It's mind-boggling to think that a Silverback Gorilla would obliterate a well conditioned NFL lineman or the World's Stongest Man in minutes. Do you have any idea how strong they are? You're well protected baby Gorilla.
Man they have a lot of flying bugs
Ray Ray and Pookie right there
The cameraman got balls as big as a silverback buttock
0:30 😂😍😍
I like how his older son backed him up
So many bugs 😱😱
The bugs…That must drive them crazy!
Its not PAIRsonal
Its PERsonal
That's it?
After 0:31 he's like "why have you betrayed me father?" Then his dad makes it up to him 😂
Damn, I wanna see the intruder slay the entire family… That would be a sight to unfold.
The babies are so incredibly cute.
Babies 👶
Fighting for the used vag again😂🤣
When you look closer at the footage you realize there’s no “rival gorilla” it’s footage of the same gorilla looped and only one gorilla is seen and the other females sad that the narration says different but watch this again and see if you see two silver back males on one screen
No Caesar, put it down
Kerchek
Kinda like me having to survive the jungle aka NYC each day of my life 💀
They're amazing
Go on the boys!!!
With all those bugs good thing they have thick hair
Damn Gorillas taking over groups are like Anakin purging the Jedi Temple.
Nature is fascinating!
I love rainforest animals.
do all of them have silver backs or only the leaders?? and how do they get silver backs are they born with it or does it come over time
They were tipped off to the danger approaching when the music changed. http://www.JesusReallyDoesLoveYou.com
Do male gorillas ever hold their infants
the father looks so cute sitting like that.. And those babies are so precious.
This is me when my son says the TV license man is at the door.
PLEASE DONT LIE NEW SILVER BACK DONT KILL THE FORMER MALES BABIES .SOME OF US do know about about their behaviour.
Forever in love 🥰 with Great Gorgeous Gorillas 🦍 from San Diego California USA
Good Daddy 💙 I pray he can protect him til he's big enough not to get eaten 😇🙏🏼💙😇🙏🏼💙😇🙏🏼💙😇🙏🏼💙😇🙏🏼💙🙏🏼😇💙🙏🏼
Ya, you can just see, Yes, I am the King here!
A shotgun to the chest would make that gorilla a nice pair of trophies and some bushmeat to last for a week.
They are so beautiful and the babies are so cute please send more 😀😂😍🤩
The Lord Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins, and he was buried, and he rose again the third day, and he is offering everlasting life to all who will believe in him.
This is how wildlife should live.Wild.
How beautiful these animals are. Good video guys.
if only human fathers protected their families like these gorilla dads
am i suppose to pretend this life is better than zoo
Ever wonder what the female's feelings and thoughts are about challenging males? Are they interested in him or scared?
Their faces are startlingly intelligent.
golira
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Tricia from WS. Lol
They kill the babies just like lions do when they take over a pride
His children are going to grow up to be strong like their father
Cute but the other silver back would of killed all the children. ..not so warm and loving
That moment when your dad will beat up anyone for you. (My dad is awesome too.)
Aw wook at DA widdo monkey baby
🥺🥺🥺❤
Da baby lesssss goooo
Yep,just like humans…
Damn people say that only humans are evil but after hearing what those apes do to their rivals young makes me think all life is evil. Except for plants maybe since the only killing they do is for survival or defense.
"so the baby is out of harms way" gets snagged
Something different about that baby it’s beautiful 🤩
Mom is beautiful too.
Plop
They are smart enough to hide. I like how it swung around like yeah dad did it. This is why we all need a daddy figure.
That new gorilla wanted to tell the gorilla his computer had a virus
Silverback dad would not stop a gunshot to the chest and see his whole troop get poached
Wild animals see shit like this everyday, that your future husband kills your son in front of you must be horrible for the mothers but they can get over it and move on so much faster than humans do. As in males, females need to have their own offspring before anything else in life, so the male did something horrible in order to have his own offspring and so did the female to achieve the goal. And on top of that they must've known from culture how it works before it happens, like we as humans get used to public execution, so the females gorillas get used to the probability of their son getting killed and having another child with the killer.
when daddy goes forward you can always see his older sons right behind, as if saying, daddy I have your back.
The babies are absolutely PRECIOUS 🥺
Man i absolutly LOVE Gorillas!
We need an entire army of people with tranquilizer darts to shoot them just incase they get out of hand because our safety is far more important than these animals.
I'll be very honest about this , if I even heard those popping sounds of a gorilla pounding it's chest? I wouldn't even hesitate I'd simply just yell forth "Take the shot! ..Now!!" and it would be over, there would be no bloody incident or anybody harmed as the gorilla would be laying flat out on its back or face whichever the two it makes no difference to me
We need to concern ourselves with our safety first!
That’s the reason dads are needed in society 🙌🏿
That Silverback is Ruchina, and the little infant was little Panoka, they were featured from a BBC documentary “Mountain Gorilla”.
In the mating ritual – the male gorilla waves his arms and bawls at her.
Fascination pour ces êtres merveilleux. .
Big silverback wouldn't want to get him upset very soon take care best wishes to everyone don't mess with the wrong troops. Joe
I have always been fascinated by Silverbacks….they are so intimidating!
Yes, that's an interesting detail that has occurred, but it's very very rare and has never been witnessed by humans. We make a lot of assumptions about the gorillas based on finding dead carcasses and observing the moves and changes within the family. If a Silverback is falling on his duties or is getting too old or if the femaies are no longer happy with him. As far as killing the young also extremely rare – and again we have never actually witnessed such a thing, it's based on secondary evidence.
