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.

Ironically the dog may have courted more danger if he fell in the chimp enclosure where they've been known to fling stray raccoons like Frisbees. Also fortunate for these very peaceful gorillas that it wasn't someone's stray kid who fell in instead because we know how police and zoos handle those situations.
Beautiful dog. Should be adopted quickly!
Beautiful dog, and a lovely temperament too - I hope this publicity will get him a wonderful home. So glad neither dog nor gorillas were harmed, they are all precious souls, trying to live their best lives.

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: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hqZrlrN-oKfWeLg.html

@@zekayman And you are missing an opportunity to learn something from this interaction. I enjoyed watching the gorilla size up the situation and not attack an invader in his home. It was a bit of drama with the chasing, but no blood shed and the dog got rescued. So it's a good and uplifting story, so Thank you, Sonya!
Wait so nobody is concerned that if a dog was able to get in the pen so easily then what's stopping the gorillas from getting out?

That happened at the Boston Zoo in the 90s. A gorilla escaped and killed a local woman. The defect in the pen that it escaped from was not found, so they kept that gorilla separate from then on. Edit: Oh, and in more recent years, a huge male orangutan at the L.A. zoo was notorious for escaping!!
Dog: Can we play?!? Gorilla: Naaaww, not today bruh! Gon' 'bout ya business elsewhere. 😂 #LoveTheKingdomOfAnimals
Both the gorillas and the dogs don’t want any business with each other 😂😂 glad the dog was safe and hopefully has a home to watch the lil fella ❤
Such a sweet and handsome dog!! I’m so glad no animal or person was hurt 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Aww, he's beautiful. One of three stray pups that wandered into the SDZ that day, they said? In any case, this one looks very adoptable as I'm sure the others are also. Hope the SDHS finds better, more secure homes for them now!
Aww that dog is a sweety
That doggy was like .. gosh those are the biggest dogs ive ever seen!! 😅😅🦍
Poor baby was so lost and confused. I’m glad he’s safe now! 🥰

Dog is like “wait you’re not a human! Better keep my distance!
Perfect video for Ozzie Man to give a great play-by-play on. Zookeeper is like, "Don't look at me, gorillas.. you gotta work for your dinner today".
Dude that dog has no idea how close he was to just being torn limb from limb, as a crowd of people watched in horror. Thank God he made it out unscathed!

Gorillas aren't THAT aggressive buddy. Sure, it has the strength to kill a dog but it's not going to go out of his way to kill the dog.

The silverback wouldn’t physically attack the dog unless it was being an active, serious threat, I.e., physically making/attempting an assault on the females or young. Gorillas are fairly tolerant of outsiders as long as they keep a healthy distance and aren’t acting aggressively. The silverback knows he can handle a dog that’s 1/5th his size. He’s not going to waste his energy pummeling it.

@@peterp2153No but he could have easily misinterpreted some action of the dog's for a threat. I do, with my book knowledge, and zero real life experience, not believe he would have hurt the dog for what was shown in the video. It didn't show how close the dog was to what gorillas before running towards the crowd though.

That gorilla knows that dog was harmless and would not have harmed it. I know someone is going to adopt that beautiful, sweet, dog in no time. They should name it Kong. 🦍🐶🐕😃
now im wondering what happened to him after being rescued by THS and whether he got adopted… is there an uodate?
