Gorilla shares moment with man she's known since birth
Gorilla shares moment with man she's known since birth
A gorilla shared a sweet moment with a man she's known her whole life - stealing his hat and giving him tender hug.
Video shows Damian Aspinall, an animal conservationist, crouched in front of Tambabi, 37.
The sweet encounter happened at Howletts Wild Animal Park in Canterbury, Kent, which is owned by The Aspinall Foundation, whose Damian is the chairman.
The pair shared this moment on November 11 when Damian visited Howletts, which was started by his father.
Tambabi was born in the park and Damian, 63, has known her since birth.
The gorilla and her family are very close to him.
In the video, Tambabi can be heard grunting and gurgling, which is how the animals communicate.
According to a Howletts spokesperson, by making those sounds Tambabi is
"intimating very loving sounds."
The Aspinall Foundation works with wild animals and specifically gorillas.
They protect a gorilla habitat the size of Kent on the Batk Plateau in central Africa and have saved more than 1,000 animal lives.
According to the Howletts spokesperson, the trust Tambabi shows in the footage is very rare.

CCTV footage shows the one-year-old male beast named Cigar scratching at its bedroom door after it accidentally swung shut on May 19.
Cigar's caretaker Akaranan Thiwatsoranan said the lion was staying by itself at the house located in an undisclosed area away from neighbourhoods because it was too tame to live in the wild.
Akaranan said: 'Cigar accidentally locked himself out of the bedroom when he was about to sleep. He sleeps for around 20 hours a day.'

Massive tiger shark interacts with diver
Amazing footage has emerged of what appears to be a "playful" tiger shark allowing a diver to play with it.
The video, shot off the coast of Fiji last year, shows the man hugging and rubbing the large shark's belly.
''It was very close to him and from where I was it looked like it might attack,'' one of the other divers later wrote online.
''Then I realised that it wasn't being aggressive at all. Rather, it was interacting with him,'' he added.
