Tense Moment as Silverback Oumbi Sends Ozala Back Outdoors

*Silverback Oumbi asserts his dominance at Twycross Zoo, charging at Ozala and sending her straight back outdoors after a tense day.*
https://www.youtube.com/show/VLPLRoLQ6T1i-Pg?sbp=QAE%3D
Shufai makes a dramatic entrance, or perhaps an exit, storming straight out the door. When lunch is served, Shanga emerges first with an absolute massive haul of cabbage leaves. She walks around scouting for more before settling up on the platform, launching those leaves right up there. Asante is outside, and Ozala comes out with her signature stiff-legged strut, knowing Shanga has claimed all the food. Watch closely for her reaction, but more importantly Shanga’s response. Shanga seems to find her feet now at Twycross Zoo. Loud screaming erupts across the enclosure, and while it is hard to tell if it was just Ozala or Shanga joining in, Silverback Oumbi does his job perfectly by stepping right in. Within a minute, order returns and Shanga goes back to her massive cabbage stash while little Aarde gets a share from his mum.

Ozala keeps her stiff-legged stance, while Asante moves up to the platform. Later at dinner, Shanga secures another huge haul, this time aubergines. Oumbi searches the platform for leftovers, giving Asante a look as if to ask if she has any, but Asante just looks away and sucks her thumb. Even as little Aarde does his mini charges, you can still feel the underlying tension in the troop, keeping Ozala on tenterhooks. Meanwhile, Asante finds a fleece towel to wear around her neck, leaving Shanga looking at her. Back inside, Oumbi seems a bit stressed, slipping into his old habit of eating too quickly and regurgitating with Shanga and Aarde watching closely. Things shift again when Ozala tries to come back inside, prompting Oumbi to charge and send her straight back outdoors before returning to his spot.

The keepers have been throwing the treats right over the wall, and these two absolutely love it. They are keeping a close eye on the wall, constantly checking to see if more food is going to be thrown in. Jambo’s funny walk is on full display as he moves around, adding a brilliant bit of comedy to the feeding time drama.

Tension and Play Among Twycross Zoo Gorillas

*Experience tension and play at Twycross Zoo as Gorilla Aarde, Shufai, and Ozala bring sudden charges and gentle moments.*
Gorilla Aarde is playing with Shufai at Twycross Zoo while Silverback Oumbi is resting with Ozala in the background. Asante starts tucking into her cabbage, which prompts Shufai to come over and investigate. Aarde watches closely and then joins in to see what is so special about this particular cabbage!
A little later, Shufai looks ready to charge, but Shanga charges instead, likely to warn him off. You can genuinely feel that heavy emotion lingering in the air, just waiting for Ozala to burst out of nowhere and charge. Shufai still loves doing his charging finished with a side slide down the slope!
Ozala remains in the background, ready to charge, and then she goes for it. Shanga walks past in her stiff legged pose while keeping her cool. Later on, Ozala is back inside relaxing in her nest, pulling a face that only Ozala can pull off.

Gorilla Shufai Meets His Match In Little Aarde

*Shufai pulls off a classic floor slide move on newcomer Aarde, sparking an energetic play fight at Twycross Zoo.*
Gorilla Shufai from Twycross Zoo is doing to newcomer Aarde what big brother Lope used to do to him, sliding right across the floor to get closer!
Aarde tries to make a quick escape with his wood wool, but seeing Shufai looking at him gets to him and he storms right over. Next thing you know, they are full-on wrestling on the ground! Little Aarde has so much energy and is definitely not giving up easily, giving us plenty of playful wrestling, biting, pushing, and pulling.

Eventually, Shufai lies back, beats his chest. Aarde then grabs the towel and puts it on, while Silverback Oumbi puts on a quick display, waving some wood wool around to cap off the action.

Aarde and his mum Shanga joined the troop a couple of month back from Chessington World of Adventure. You can find all the videos in the episode guide I’ve done when Aarde was only one year old.

Baby Bonobo Biso Jumps Off Mum at Twycross Zoo

* Baby bonobo Biso plays on mum before she goes wild with a cardboard box at Twycross Zoo.* https://youtu.be/la3xklAbSqU

Baby bonobo Biso from Twycross Zoo steps right on mum’s back while she is lying down, then cute as anything, jumps straight off to the ground. Later on, mum does what bonobos just love doing, pushing a cardboard box with serious speed right through their habitat. While mum takes a well-earned rest, little Biso wanders over to have a look at the people at the window.

Shufai Dramatically Throws Towel

*Gorilla Shufai and the towel toss at Twycross Zoo, while Asante tenderly touches baby Aarde tiny toes.*

🌿🦍 Gorilla Asante from Twycross Zoo sits right in front of little Aarde, and then she suddenly starts to touch his little toes. It is almost like she is in complete awe of how small they are. It really is such a sweet moment to catch .
Aarde moves away and Asante tries to touch his foot again. She follows him around, but then quickly turns around as Silverback Oumbi makes his presence known, coming barging in. He settles down for his food, but when he finishes, he pops into the back room. That is when Shufai comes walking upright, towel in hand, beating his chest before throwing the towel right towards the back door. Oumbi comes straight back out to see what on earth is going on, while Shufai makes a very swift exit.
Later on, Shanga and her son Aarde have a lovely little huddle while Aarde gets fed. I got a great close up of Aarde on the floor when suddenly Asante comes over and tries to sit on him! I have no idea what she was thinking. She quickly moved off him again though, probably because she saw my surprised face.
To finish the day, Aarde has a tree branch that is hanging down, but he only looks away for one second and Shufai pulls the entire branch up, leaving poor Aarde with just the leftovers. Ozala is sitting nearby as well, throwing a few glances over, but all in all it turned out to be a fairly calm.

Gorilla Aarde Finds the Most Unconventional Way to Drink Water

*An additional Members video this week! Gorilla Aarde invents a cheeky new way to drink water at Twycross Zoo, while tired Oumbi rests and Shufai causes playful chaos.*
Gorilla Aarde has a completely unconventional way of drinking water. Even though there are brand new water taps installed inside where he can get fresh water at any time, he has decided his own method is much more fun.
Meanwhile, Silverback Oumbi is looking a bit tired today, taking a well-earned rest while the younger ones stay active. Young Shufai is charging around and trying to push little Aarde, but Aarde does not mind one bit and later enjoys some energetic playtime with his favourite barrel.

Little Gorilla Aarde Picks Up Oumbi’s Best And Worst Habits

*Watch little gorilla Aarde pick up Oumbi’s best and worst habits at Twycross Zoo, from window watch duties to pushing the door flap!*

🌿It was so wonderful to see those play sessions again, just like I used to see with the GoBros Lope and Shufai. Aarde came storming towards Shufai for a little wrestle, and Shufai put his arm around him in a quiet moment in between. Then came the moment I was waiting for! Aarde has picked up the family tradition the leg up on the window sill. Just like Oumbi did today, Lope did when he was at Twycross, and Shufai is still doing it too. I wondered how long it took him to pick it up!

🌿Aarde joined Asante, then made room for Oumbi as he followed Asante to the next window. They were carefully watching to see if the keepers were doing a good job with the cleaning and I’m sure thinking “common just get on with it, we’re hungry”! I felt a bit sorry for Ozala sitting further away at first, and then later she was checking to see if the door was still closed behind the door flap. So Oumbi came and pushed her through the door flap, which was something Aarde did to Shufai later on! Ozala was smelling Asante as well, and I wondered what that was about! I don’t think I have ever seen her do that before.
