As England is celebrating the World cup 2018 quarter final win over Sweden. This group of fans are celebrating their own way by joining a beatboxer that is performing in the City Centre of Birmingham, West Midlands England. This talented beatboxer is doing his thing when the fans approach him singing football is coming home, is coming home …. . The fans are dancing, jumping up and down with the beat of the beatboxer. The seemingly drunken football supporters jump around that much that the money collection goes flying and all the money rolls onto the pavement. The street entertainer is quite disappointed and shouts you’re kicking my money man! The lads are scrambling to put all the money back into the box. One of the football supporters grabs the microphone of the beatboxer and starts singing loudly. The beatboxer is still smiling and letting the fans get on with borrowing his mic. They are all starting to sing loudly again and start jumping, while the beatboxer does his round to collect money from the crowd. It looked like the crowd was giving generously, assuming because they felt sorry for the beatboxer that his act was cut short by the revellers and that he was such a good sport and letting them borrow his gear. More and more football fans are joining the group as they all jump around and chant.

The beatboxers in Birmingham, West Midlands England get an unaccepted elderly dance groupie. He is showing off his moves, dancing all alone and making the audience burst out in laughter. He is really enjoying himself trying to keep up with the beat. Street entertainers are now a very common site in Birmingham (Brum) which make the shopping street come alive.

These are the elephants from the Chester Zoo in Cheshire, England. The two month old newborn baby Anjan has fallen to the ground and can’t seem to get up again. At first just the two siblings surround him and try to help him get up. Than the third one joins in. Now all the calves in the herd surround him. Nandita, the oldest calf, seems to try and move him gently with her foot. Or maybe she is just trying to tell him to get up. The poor little baby appears to struggle in the sand and with all those big feet you would think he was getting trampled on! When you see one of them just narrowly missing the baby’s trunk, it does make you cringe, but in fact they are very gentle. It is more like a nudge to get him back up. In the end Nandita gives him some pushes with her trunk and the baby finally manages to get back on his feet. Just pausing in the sitting position for a few seconds, seemingly contemplating what just happened and then the final push and Anjan is on his feed again and walking off like nothing has happened. A very happy ending!

Working in a zoo can be quite dangerous at times, but it pales in comparison to the times it’s made you feel elated to even know these amazing creatures. Being a zoo caretaker lets you get to know these beautiful souls a little bit better and create a tight bond, even become friends. Aside from making sure they remain healthy and adapt to the life in captivity, you get to learn all about their quirks and realize that they might be animals, but they each have their own character, and it’s absolutely amazing. The employees at the Twycross Zoo in England decided to show the rest of the world the most incredible footage of a mother and children interaction between Diana monkeys. De'Arly the Diana monkey gave birth to Khari, being the first Diana monkey to be born at the Twycross Zoo in England since 1987. Just recently, De'Arly gave birth to another <a href="https://rumble.com/v33h38-funny-monkey-cute-baby-monkey.html" target="_blank">baby</a> (not named yet), another great achievement from the Twycross Zoo and their breeding program for this rare type of monkey. Check out mom's humorous frustrations as she does her best to keep high-energy Khari away from his newborn sibling! Diana monkeys are a species of monkeys most commonly found in West Africa, especially in Cote D’Ivoire, Ghana and Sierra Leone. They are a no bigger than 20 inches without the tail which can reach up to 30 inches. They have a lifespan of about 20 years and mainly live in primary forests. Their fur consists of black or grey coloring on their backs with white fur on their belly and underside. The prominent brow bone is the inspiration behind their name. It is very similar to the one the goddess Diana had in Roman mythology. These monkeys are known to be quite loud in the wilderness, roaming around the forest and talking to each other. It almost looks like a normal human environment with overprotective mothers and quite rambunctious young. The mothers <a href="https://rumble.com/v4hzbj-monkey-mom-never-let-baby-monkey-far-from-her.html" target="_blank">hover</a> over their children until they are done with nursing. Afterwards only the female are left to live close to their moms while the male Diana monkeys leave the group and roam the forest, trying to create a group of their own. A Diana monkey group usually consists of one male monkey with his females around him and their children. Although as of lately zoos get a bad reputation for keeping animals away from their natural habitat and keeping them under locks, their main goal is to educate people on the billions of different species living in the most remote places on Earth, threatened by extinction by global warming or by the human hand, and luckily, every once in a while, they teach us that we may come in different forms, but we are all alike.

Lope and Shufai are having a play fight in front of their big silverback dad who is sitting quietly in the corner. When those two are tumbling a bit too close to Oumbi, the Silverback grabs Lope gently and turns him around without any effort. The brothers continue to play, but Lope gives Oumbi just that little glance of disapproval. Shufai continues to play with Lope while Lope is fighting dad’s arm, which is nearly the same size. Dad just can’t stop himself getting involved and keeps grabbing Lope, but Oumbi seems pretty relaxed with it all. Lope decides it’s time to annoy dad some more by trying to grab his face. Little Shufai quickly runs to the other end because he probably knows what is coming. Lope continues by beating his chest in front of Oumbi and just being silly in general. That was the last straw for the silverback as he first pouts his lips and it takes only another chest beat from Lope to make those massive muscles move like a lighting strike launching towards Lope. His son managed to get away, but his dad certainly made his feelings very clear. He is still the boss!

When we talk about the intellectual capacities of real pinnipeds, then the first place, of course, is occupied by sea lions. They have an enviable memory, are able to understand human commands and are perfectly trained. This is the only kind of pinnipeds that successfully performs in <a href="https://rumble.com/v4rgyf-watch-this-womans-hilarious-reaction-to-going-to-the-circus.html" target="_blank">the circus</a>. Probably, many of you have seen how the sea lions briskly run up the stairs, take acrobatic poses, blow the trumpet and, of course, with amazing dexterity catch the tip of the nose thrown balls. True, keeping a sea lion in captivity is rather expensive - it requires 8 to 12 kg of fish every day, and certainly fresh. However, <a href="https://rumble.com/v4q9ox-great-white-shark-encounters-sea-lion.html" target="_blank">sea lions</a> were trained not only for the entertainment of the most respected public. Even during the First World War, these talented pinnipeds tried to use for military purposes. With such a portfolio behind them, sea lions should not surprise or even amaze us with the stunts and the behavior they are capable to perform and show. And, despite all being said, they still do. Thousands of admirers gather at sea world facilities to admire and cheer these intelligent sea mammals. Here they can see sea lions performing a variety of tricks. Their level of intelligence makes sea lions easy to train and generally get along very well with humans that are working with them. The video at the top of the page shows a touching moment between two members of this species living and thriving in captivity. Watch. The now 17-year-old Patagonian sea lion male arrived from the French Riviera in April 2015 to live in the Dudley Zoo in the West Midlands, England. He seemed to have had a disagreement with his female partner because he was getting the cold shoulder all morning. However, with a little charm, he is able to win her over in this adorable clip. And mind you, this is not only made for the audience’s applause because sea lions are very particular animals if they do not want something, then in no way will they be forced to do it. This is a genuine sign of affection coming from the heart. Adorable! Adapted to life in water, Patagonian sea lions belong to a family of mammals that have mastered the ocean, without losing the ability to confidently move overland. They have a hydrodynamic body shape, limbs that have turned into fins, a thick layer of that fat helps them maintain their temperature, and an unrivaled sense of balance that allows them to perform miracles of juggling. This is a very sociable and not even the least shy animal. They can spend long periods of time in the sea, but in the mating season and the time of the birth of the pups, they return to the land. At this time they form large colonies, the males participate in battles for the territory, the winner of which receives under his protectorate all the females who are in the conquered area, whom he furiously protects.

This poor baby elephant calf gets pushed around by its big brother at the Chester Zoo in Cheshire, England. They're no different from humans!

This is the orangutan youngster from the Paignton Zoo in Devon, England. The zoo staff had a surprise for the Borneo orangutans; they put a giant fruit flavored ice popsicle in their habitat and also a nice big blanket to play with. The popsicle seems to have all kind of stuff in in like mixed fruit, veg and herbs. Yum!

These funky gibbons just love their playtime at the Dudley Zoo in the West Midlands, England. There are so energetic and funny with their long arms and legs!

Lope the Gorilla youngster from the Twycross Zoo in England is up to no good again as he has issues with the door flap and whoever is behind it. What a goofball!

Chimpanzees are our closest living relatives, sharing more than 98 percent of our genetic blueprint. Humans and chimps are also thought to share a common ancestor who lived some four to eight million years ago. Although they normally walk on all fours (knuckle-walking), chimpanzees can stand and walk upright. By swinging from branch to branch they can also move quite efficiently in the trees, where they do most of their eating. Chimpanzees usually sleep in the trees as well, employing nests of leaves. In this video, Jambo the hairless <a href="https://rumble.com/v4ek1t-chimpanzee-uses-cd-as-mirror-to-check-her-face.html" target="_blank">chimpanzee</a> is getting a thorough dental check by his mate. She is really trying to get all the little bits out of his teeth poking and prodding, while Jambo holds very still and lets her get on with the job. Because nothing looks better than cleaned, shiny teeth, even for chimps. Of course chimps care about the monkey business thing, especially if there is somebody around them to watch what they do and be left in awe. Apes will never cease to surprise us with their incredibly clownish behavior. And they thoroughly enjoy the role of being a jesters on the “court” called a zoo. Jambo’s friend makes sure to give him a detailed dental check-up by using her hands as a dental floss and a toothbrush in order to be able to pluck out every tiny little piece of leftover food that got stuck between his teeth. She also wants to make sure that all parts of the hard and soft palate are being equally flossed. And just look how Jambo follows suite. Neither once does he complain or jerks his head in displeasure. We know that <a href="https://rumble.com/v3407e-chimpanzee-love-makeup-and-do-her-hair-style.html" target="_blank">primates</a> love when somebody pats and taps their bodies and they can go on reaping the full benefits of that for hours and hours. So, when Jambo’s mate meticulously finishes cleaning the soft palate, she doesn’t forget to go on cleaning the hard one. Chimpanzees are lively animals with more extroverted dispositions than either gorillas or orangutans. They are highly social and live in loose and flexible groups known as communities, or unit groups. Social dominance exists, with adult males being dominant over adult females and adolescent males. Within a community, there are twice or three times as many adult females as adult males. The dominant (alpha) male of a group can monopolize ovulating females through possessive behavior. On the other hand, gang attack by subordinate males can expel an alpha male.

A heartwarming video has emerged of a gorilla youngster feasting on a giant piece of popsicle. The weather is heating up and the Lope is after some cold flavored fruit ice, in this case a huge popsicle that is hanging from the climbing frame in his habitat. Yum! <a href="https://rumble.com/v3vox7-cheeky-lope-the-gorilla-youngster-smacks-adult-on-her-nose.html" target="_blank">Lope the gorilla</a> from the Twycross Zoo in Atherstone, England is having so much fun on a daily basis. He enjoys playing in the hay, throwing it all over himself, wiggling about. He likes playing hide and seek with the other members of his tribe, but most of all he appreciates good food. Just look at him munching on a giant piece of popsicle with delight! Lope knows how to make everybody smile! Who would have thought that gorillas can be hooked on goodies and declare popsicle as their favorite snack. It is not that surprising given this cool treat is scrumptious, smooth and makes everything much better. The great thing about ice cream popsicle is that we can eat it every season since it cools us down in the summer heat, but also makes the winter cold much more bearable! In this hilarious footage, we see a youngster gorilla feasting on a big chunk of fruit <a href="https://rumble.com/v4049t-tongue-stuck-to-popsicle.html" target="_blank">popsicle</a> hanging in its enclosure. Lope the gorilla youngster is full of energy, and he isn’t afraid to show it. However, today was different because he decided to slow down and enjoy the hanging popsicle snack in peace. Watch how he feasts on the cooling treat with delight! Wonderful!

Lope the Gorilla youngster makes funny faces from the inside of the flap while Oumbi his huge Silverback dad is on the other side and watches him. But just check out what happens next!

This is a compilation of waterfalls and cascades from Slovenia. The Slap Pericnik is a two stepped waterfall within the glacial Vrata Valley, Triglav National Park, Slovenia. In winter months both waterfalls freeze completely and the water droplets sprayed against the rock face form incredible, glacier blue stalactites and stalagmites. An incredible site. The glacial water cascading over the rocks at the snowy Vintgar Gorge, Soteska Vintgar in Slovenia with its turquoise fast flowing river. Unfortunately the gorge is closed over the winter month, but you still have a great view from the entrance. A couple of cascades towards the mighty Waterfall the Slap Kozjak and then the majestic fifteen metres high Waterfall hidden away in an almost cave like setting. The lavish green Soča River Gorge, the narrow valley with steep and rocky walls nature's beauty. The turquoise water of the Soca river running through the valley. Next up the Slap Sopota and Slap Krampež not far away from the Slap Kozjak in Kobraid. Both are close together with only a 5 minute walk from each other. Located near the village of Drežnica. The so called Glijun (Izvir Glijuna) stream shows a multi-stranded waterfall called Slap Virje, near the town of Bovec in Slovenia that is more than 11 meters in height and about 19 m in width. Below, there is a stunning emerald green pool. When you get to the Log pod Mangartom road towards the mighty Mangart saddle, you can view the steep waterfall from the bridge. A view of the Tolmin Gorge from above. A fast flowing river with its footbridge going across. The Gorge is closed over the winter month, but it still gives you this great view from above. The cascading river at the village of Zelezniki in Slovenia with its colorful houses in the background.

A hilarious footage has emerged of an over-confident male gorilla exercising dominance in his zoo enclosure. However, his heroic act was tainted with an epic slip up. Who would have known that even a silverback gorilla can slip up? He slipped so much that he did the splits! Adorable! Imagine going to the ZOO to visit all those exotic animals, only to have a 375 pound male gorilla lunge at you in his enclosure! In this clip, we see a massive silverback male showing visitors and other gorillas in his enclosure that he is the alpha! Glass or not, watching a gorilla charge at you only to pound on its chests, is definitely a scary experience! In this video, we are fazed by what the huge mammal is trying to achieve, but eventually, karma takes things in her own hands. This is typical behavior, it is just what male gorillas do. They just exude that dominance and they want to show that any way they can, while making a lot of noise and fuss about it. The pounding of chests and the angry charging, makes gorillas seem pretty scary to be around! In this compilation of several footages, we see a <a href="https://rumble.com/v3tvsr-big-silverback-gorilla-lets-everyone-know-whos-the-boss.html" target="_blank">male silverback gorilla exercising dominance</a> in a zoo enclosure. In the first footage we see a male gorilla pounding his chests, showing the others who’s in charge. Next, he charges straight down the grass with such incredible force, but slips in the process. What an embarrassment for such alpha male, we’re sure! Next time, we hope he learns how to hold his horses, and exercise his dominance elsewhere! We have seen male gorillas in action many times and we know their dominant behavior. If you haven’t stumbled upon <a href="https://rumble.com/v30fng-must-watch-omaha-zoo-silverback-gorilla-attacks.html" target="_blank">harsh gorilla dominance</a>, make sure you stick around for a moment to witness the action as a self-confident male beats his chests for attention. It's all for recognition! The hierarchical organization is typical for many species of gorilla; the only question is what this hierarchy is like. We can say that hierarchically structured teams of gorillas can be of fundamentally dissimilar. First, these are structures with egalitarian dominance. This means that the team has a leader and subordinates. But subordinates have enough freedom of choice, freedom of action in relations with each other and even in relations with the leader. Secondly, it is a rigid despotic structure, like you can clearly see in the video on the top of the page, under which a linear vertical is built, and each higher rank dictates all of its requirements to the lower one. And the inferiors are deprived of the right to vote. Each type of gorilla has its own structure of the collective. Of course, within each species at the population level, there are variations, but, in principle, each structure has a constant structure. The social structures in gorillas are sufficiently well defined and outlined, the rules of behavior are defined within the limits of these structures by species-specific opportunities.

This is the emotional moment when two hairless chimpanzees share their love and affection for each other. Watch as they act like lovers do in a way you would never expect it! Adorable! Jambo from the Twycross Zoo in England is completely relaxed in his new enclosure called Eden. He seems <a href="https://rumble.com/v30mzv-hairless-chimp-in-love.html" target="_blank">totally in love</a> and besotted with his female mate. He is caressing her foot gently, while she is playing hard to get and keeps pulling away. Just like humans, you can see her later putting her hands around his neck in a loving gesture. Then she starts to kiss his bald head gently. The next bit is just amazing as Jambo pulls away and stretches out his lips towards her. She then gently bites his lips and pulls on it. She continues to investigate his teeth for a few seconds before biting his lip again. He then continues with a French kiss, sticking out his tongue. He even closes his eyes for a second to enjoy the intimate moment! Afterwards he gently bites her brows. You can easily see how animal love doesn't differ much from our own. Even an alpha male, that shows everybody who the boss is by intimidating the opponent with lots of noise and bluster, that he can be also very gentle. An amazing animal couple. And for Jambo it shows that being a bit different doesn't stop you from doing anything, from becoming the boss to a gentle lover. The question on your mind is, why is Jambo hairless? People also call him the 'naked chimp'. Some people think they shaved him or that he is ill. The truth is, the ape has Alopecia, a medical term for hair loss and he had it since adolescence. He is now 35 years old and with his hair gone you can simply see how powerfully muscular he is. Being a <a href="https://rumble.com/v33qx6-the-facinating-hairless-chimpanzees.html" target="_blank">hairless chimpanzee</a> hasn't stopped him from anything, rather the opposite as he's the alpha male and rules his habitat!

Living in a zoo is not easy - not even if you have a huge space perfectly designated for you. Each enclosed space is simply not open enough to feed your imagination. Especially if you are a monkey. <a href="https://rumble.com/v2zcqn-monkey-skateboarder.html" target="_blank">Monkeys</a> can get bored easily regarding the fact that their needs to show off in front of visitors is just not enough for their thirst to clown around. This naughty gorilla, called Lope is a perfect example of this. Lope is a youngster from the Twycross Zoo in Atherstone, England and he is at his funniest when he's annoying his poor mother! He has obviously understood the secret of life that apparently not many humans have mastered it so far - that is why wasting the days of your life when you can do something meaningful with them? Well, that “meaningful” for this gorilla is to get on his mom’s nerves and be as irritating as possible. There is no way not to neg his mom, especially when she can hardly be seen since she is obviously hiding from her son, covered in wood scraps. However, her son is clever enough to notice when his mom is not around, so he knows what to do - the thing he always does when he wants to play. First, he starts with biting his mom in the buttock and he knows that what he does is something that his mom hates. Nevertheless, he still does it, because every game starts with a ritual. Since his mom is not interested in his crazy game, he goes away and finds a hanging ball with water inside. Why not refresh himself on a such a hot day? Water boosts his energy levels so he can keep on showing visitors what a <a href="https://rumble.com/v38m9p-funny-mechanic-monkey.html" target="_blank">funny</a> monkey he is!

Showcasing a 4K view of the historical city Ljubljana in Slovenia. Ljubljana is the capital and largest city of Slovenia. The fast running Ljubljanica River runs through the capital.

Benji, the large Borneo Orangutan male from the Dudley zoo in the West Midlands, England enjoys to chew, but what can you do if you haven’t got any real gum? Not a problem for this clever Orangutan. He just rips off some cardboard from the box and uses that as chewing gum substitute. The handsome fellow is enjoying it that much; you can hear the noise he is making and see his huge teeth. His mother obviously never told him to close his mouth while chewing. In between chewing, he has a look by having the piece on the end of his lip and glancing down towards the piece of paper. He keeps chewing when he lies down, but what he does next is not for the faint-hearted. He sticks his substitute gum into his nostril, pushes it in a little more has a good sniff and then he takes it back out again. Yes you’'ve seen it correctly he is putting it back into his mouth – eek and continues to chew with pleasure. Benji had his 40th birthday on the 6t November 2017. He was born in 1977 at Duisburg zoo, Germany. In 1978 he transferred to Wuppertal Zoo, Germany. In 1994 he moved to Dublin zoo, Ireland and in 1996 he moved to Dudley, UK. Dudley zoo has one other male called Jorong in a different enclosure from Benji. There is also the female orangutan Jazz with her 7-year-old daughter called Sprout. Sprout is very lovable and very clever. Watch her here on Rumble as a <a href="https://rumble.com/v31u3d-baby-orangutan-jumps-on-to-self-made-crash-mat.html?mref=8102&mrefc=3" target="_blank">Baby orangutan jumps onto self-made crash mat!</a> Dudley Zoological Gardens is a 40-acre zoo located within the grounds of Dudley Castle in the town of Dudley, in the Black Country region of the West Midlands, England. In the past couple of years more and more has been done to improve the zoo with some great new enclosures.

A hilarious footage has emerged of a young gorilla teasing an elderly member of his tribe, engaging in play mode at their enclosure at the zoo. Lope the gorilla youngster is full of energy, but he never really had a lot of contact with his grandma Bidi before. However, today was different because both were full of energy and in a mood for a wrestling match. What a priceless interaction they share! Meet Lope, the cheeky gorilla youngster from the Twycross Zoo in England who often displays his silly antics, much for onlookers’ amusement. Look at him having a go at his grandmother. Watch as the <a href="https://rumble.com/v3c4ks-gorilla-mother-and-her-baby-backpack.html" target="_blank">cheeky gorilla youngester</a> teases with his elderly grandmother Bidi, trying to pick a fight while playing and messing around with her! What a little rascal! He's getting close to her, but at first it seems like she is not in the mood for games, and pushes Lope out of her way. However, Lope doesn't seem to be that bothered by her action and continues to give her smack attacks while running around their enclosure! Lope is becoming quite the lovable rogue with his human teenager like attitude. His favorite moves include strut like a human through his enclose, his little commando rolls, swinging his arms and jumping in the air. Check out this <a href="https://rumble.com/v3xedf-the-chase-is-on-for-gorilla-youngster-lope.html" target="_blank">playful gorilla</a> at the Twycross Zoo in England go full play mode on his grandmother. It almost looks as if these fun-loving apes are putting a show on for all the spectators at the zoo! Isn't this video just hilarious? Animals have many human-like characteristics about themselves which is highlighted in this video right here. Lope is a 4-year-old western lowland gorilla, a species that is labeled as critical on the IUCN list. He is the the second child of 22-year-old mother Ozala and 24-year-old dad Oumbi. The 4-year-old rascal can be seen running around their enclosure in Twycross, just like a human baby would, teasing his grandmother, engaging in play mode. It is an important aspect of a gorilla youngers’ behavior, but he needs to learn about the hierarchy in the troop. These rare primates are usually found in dense rainforests and swamps in Central Africa, but their populations in the wild have declined by more than 60% in the past two decades. Western lowland gorillas have been pushed to the brink of extinction by humans clearing their forests for timber, oil and gas, as well as poaching the animals for bushmeat and the illegal pet trade.
