After the scary episode, earlier this week gorilla Lope and Shufai are enjoying a run around, chasing each other, they're full of energy. When they sit down, taking a rest, it's Shufai who slings the metal ring into Lope, trying to provoke him to play again. Lope dodges the ring and decides to grab a stick instead. Shufai moves away from Lope, but keeping his eyes firmly on Lope, trying to get his brother to run after him, but Lope is staying put. A little later Lope moved and Shufai is by the metal ring beating his chest at Lope. That does it, as Lope comes running/climbing after his brother. Asante sits on the log and Ozala is sitting in the back. Then Shufai has a little wrestle with Lope before the running starts again. #SloggerVlogger #GorillaLope #GorillaShufai

Are you one of the people who thinks everyone likes hugs? Look how these kangaroos can't stop hugging! Probably all people like hugs, since hugs help people relax and feel better about themselves. On the other hand, this video shows that kangaroos also love hugs, especially when Valentine's Day is approaching, since these kangaroos know that they must show each other how much they love each other and that is why they cannot stop hugging. It seems that kangaroos also understand the importance of Valentine's Day, this happened at a zoo in Atherstone, England. These are the most adorable kangaroos in the world! The <a href="https://rumble.com/v8362h-hungry-kangaroos-come-to-humans-during-snowstorm.html" target="_blank">kangaroo</a> is an animal as wonderful as it is surprising. His ability to move by jumping instead of running is one of his best-known traits. However, these Australian marsupials present another series of features and curiosities worthy of review. The common name ‘kangaroo’ is generally used to describe this species. However, there are several subspecies that are classified according to features such as size, behavior and geographic location, to name a few. The term kangaroo designates the largest within the species, just as wallaby is used to refer to the smaller ones. One of the curiosities that most attract attention to these animals is that they do not sweat. His way of adapting to heat is licking his legs. Then they rub their chest with them to lower their body temperature. The kangaroo has the possibility to turn its ears and listen sharply almost imperceptible noises to other animals. They can also survive without water for several weeks. For this, they extract from the plants that ingest the liquids and nutrients they need. In some legal poppy plantations, kangaroos ingest these plants and can get high. This is evident when they move awkwardly, and they can be seen spinning or unable to maintain balance. His way of knowing is sniffing his nose and face. Then they can socialize by fighting, which usually happens among young kangaroos. However, some adult <a href="https://rumble.com/v7njtn-kangaroos-crossing-the-football-field.html" target="_blank">specimens</a> may retain this habit. Mating is another matter that is curious since males sniff the females' urine to recognize if they are ready for reproduction. The procession period can last up to three days. Frequently, the male sniffs and touches the female's tail with its legs, and it responds with sinuous movements. Some kangaroo species mate only when the climatic conditions are favorable for the young. Females can stop the embryonic development of their young if the environmental conditions are not favorable. This happens frequently in seasons of severe droughts, so when conditions improve, pregnancy continues smoothly. Thus they provide greater chances of survival for their children. Fortunately, there are not too many natural predators for this species. Foxes, some snakes, eagles, and dingoes usually attack them, especially young or young individuals. However, poaching by men to sell meat, and the destruction of their habitat, keeps the human race as the most dangerous species, not only for kangaroos but for the world in general. Check out these two lovebirds at a zoo in Atherstone, England. They can't stop hugging each other!

The zoo is building a structure in the sea lion enclosure and they were trying to keep the sea lions away from the workers with some fish treat from the yellow bucket. The keeper sat on the edge of the water to feed them one fish after another as slowly as possible. They're quite used to hand feeding as they were once part of a sea lion show before they joined Dudley Zoo. One of the sea lion didn't agree with the slow feed and got to the bucket and pushed it into the water. The keeper couldn't really do anything at the time and decided to try to target practice and just throw the fish in the bucket. She was pretty good at hitting the target and the sealion had a whale of a time playing with the bucket and getting the fish out.

More of baby Indigo and his play with the ribbon. His name is Indigo. He was born on the 23rd December 2017 and is the second born of mum N’yaounda. Dad Golo is also at the Budapest Zoo. #SloggerVlogger #BabyGorilla #GorillaIndigo

Baby gorilla Indigo is having some fun with the green ribbon on the platform. Indigo was born on the 23rd December 2017 and is the second born of mum N’yaounda. Dad Golo is also at the Budapest Zoo. #SloggerVlogger #BabyGorilla #GorillaIndigo

The lovable rascal Lope is not so lovable today. As grandma Biddy sits in her favorite spot with her wood wool, Lope approaches her and slaps her on her chin. Lope does take it too far sometimes. You just want grandma to get up, put him on her knees and give him a right slap on his backside. Ozala his mom wouldn't be so forgiving. After Lope plays with the bottle, he has another run-up to poor Biddy and does the same thing again, but this time it does look more than just a slap. Biddy shows him her teeth and gives him a dirty look, but leaves it at that. Lope puts some wood wool on his head, does his usual knock on the hut and runs up to Ozala and Shufai.

In this weeks video baby Indigo plays with Gorilla Liesel the oldest gorilla of the Budapest zoo. Liesel was born on the April 15th 1977 in Germany Frankfurt and moved to the Budapest zoo on the 20.April.1989 . Liesel is lying on the floor when Indigo tries to run past. She tries to grab him, but he gets away. Indigo does the same again and this time Liesel manages to grab him and has a play with the baby gorilla.

The staff prepares the room for Lope's 7th birthday. All the ribbons and signs are up with honey placed on top of the gifts. Inside the boxes there are food pellets, salads and vegetables. On the many logs, the staff spread some food that looked like an oat and a peanut butter mixture. Lope is out first of course and goes straight for that oat mixture on the log. Then he takes one of the kong toys and after running around with it, he takes it to a quiet spot up to the top bunk and enjoys the food inside.

Check out the amount of sand this hippo puts in its mouth. Can anyone explain this behavior? Let us know!

Lope and his dance moves. Twirling, clapping, commando roll, swinging upside down. Shufai buds in and beats his chest at Lope, so Lope decides to take a big jump towards Shufai. They having a little wrestle on the floor. Afterwards Lope gets back to swing upside down and Shufai gives me a little knock on the window. When Lope is finished, he seems to walk off in a huff and hits that barrel. #SloggerVlogger #AnimalVideos #GorillaLope

Playtime for Gorilla Indigo in the wood wool. #SloggerVlogger #BabyGorilla #GorillaIndigo

Mayani doesn't take the gentle option when it comes to picking up her daughter Thandie. She always swings her on her back, but Thandie doesn't seem to mind. She just enjoys the ride. You can see that mom cares and always watches the little one. When Thandie is too close to the edge of the rock, she quickly grabs her and moves her away!

As Jambo patrols from the upper log. Kibali makes his presence know down below with lots of noise and smashing against the window. He tried to challenge Jambo on numerous occasion for the leadership, but really he's all noise and no action and staff says he is just testing the waters as he's still quite young to take over. This is just before feeding time and things can get quite noisy. #SloggerVlogger #HairlessChimpanzee #HairlessChimp

It's noisy again in the chimp enclosure and Jambo makes his present known. When chimps fight they go for the soft tissue first, that's why you see his mother Coco protecting her sons testicles. You never know what happens, better to be safe. :-) You see this behaviour as well in on of my other videos : https://youtu.be/-ADk_4dTXt8. Where a female is holding Mongo's ( Son of Jambo, who died in 2016) private parts.

Filmed a week after Jambo's fight, his injuries are healing up. Jambo is still picking at it though, so hopefully he won't open them up again. He's been looked after by the females, including Genet his daughter who is following him and reassuring him with a pad on the back. Mum Coco turns up as well and reaches out her hand to Jambo. On the right site, the sweet chimp Rosie. Jambo was born on the 9th June 1982. His mum is Coco was born in 1965. Cocos offspring's are Jambo and his half-sister Charlotte. She was born on the 28 Sep 1978 and there is a male called Kip that is supposed to be there too, but records are pretty outdated and to be honest I'm not familiar with this name and don't think he's still at Twycross. I might be wrong. It is a big group and some chimps are still in the second group which I'm not that familiar with. Jambo has more siblings at Twycross from his father's side who are William born on the 30th June 1982, Holly she was born on the 27th December 1982 and Jomar he was born on the 28th December 1990. #SloggerVlogger #HairlessChimansee #HairlessChimp

Clips from during the day. Oumbi knows what he's looking for and goes straight for the wood wool mount. He just grabs the veg and continued his food search. I think the staff need to do better in hiding the items :-), that was way too easy. A little later, Oumbi is still looking for little tit bits and lets Lope, his son know not to steal his food. Shufai seems to feel quite tired. He made himself a bed. The winter sun shinning. He lies down, stretches and yawns, but something is sticking in his back. He investigates and he finds the big stick. He watches his dad walk past and then beats his little chest. #SloggerVlogger #GorillaOumbi #GorillaShufai

Gorilla Shufai is enjoying his banana leaf. As soon as he drops it Lope his big brother takes it away. #SloggerVlogger #AnimalVideos #GorillaBrothers

Lope wants some of the wood wool that's on the bunk, but he goes about all the wrong way. After sitting there for a minute, taking some of the wood wool in his mouth, going crazy with it, he's suddenly having a light-bulb moment and figures out that there is an easy way of getting that wood wool of the bunk. He got a stick as well, but didn't seem interested in it. He fluffs up all the wood, only to roll off it and move on. #SloggerVlogger #AnimalVideos #GorillaLope

Gorilla Lope is enjoying the bark of this huge tree trunk . He's balancing the log in his hands and scrapes off the bark with his teeth. He decides to move and walks of upright carrying the tree trunk. When he gets to the door, I was half expecting him to have the log horizontal and not fit through it, but not Lope, he isn't stupid, he moved it in front of him and got through the door without any problem. There he sat down and carried on eating the bark. Shufai comes to check it out, but when he tries to come too close Lope is quick to respond and shoos his brother off. Shufai made do with the little stick. #SloggerVlogger #AnimalVideos #GorillaLope

Shufai has got a nice big tree branch that he starts to nibble on. It's not too long until Ozala wants a piece off it as well and and tries to grab some. Shufai is quick of the block and runs away with it. Ozala found another stick and is happy for a while. Shufai on the other site can't get a minute to enjoy his tree branch as Lope is now chasing after him as soon as he sat down. Shufai manages to get away at first, but when they're both back on the ground , Lope gets hold of his tree branch. Not for long, as suddenly Ozala comes chasing after Lope. He drops the branch and Ozala takes it away, but Lope follows. His mum is having none of it and and quickly turns towards him, chases him until Lope starts screaming. Oumbi on the other site had a quick look to see if he needs to intervene , but decided against it. Just too much afford. Just let Ozala deal with it. #SloggerVlogger #Gorillas #TwycrossGorillas

This is the beautiful chimpanzee Rosie from the Twycross Zoo. She is a real sweetheart and loves mirrors, sparkly diamante rings (she always perks up when someone shows her a ring that sparkles) and shoes. Show her your shoes and she is really fascinated. In this video she enjoys her reflection, combing herself with a stick. She then really does look like she pretends to smoke!

Asante is sitting on the bunk bed with her toes spread apart. Later she comes over to me and shows her tongue and teeth to me. She only moves when Oumbi comes closer in the background. When she's sitting at the wall, she seemed to have something stuck between her teeth. You just want to give her a toothpick.

These are the Bonobos from the Twycross Zoo, the only Bonobos in England. This is little cutie is baby Lola and she's all smiles. She was born on the Sat 3rd August 2019 and she was named after the Lola ya Bonobo (‘Paradise for bonobos’ in Lingala) the world’s only sanctuary for orphaned bonobos. Her mum is the 9-year old Likemba. She came to Twycross in early 2019. So quite a new member of the family.
