Gorilla baby and mother share tender moment

A gorilla baby and mother enjoy some play time beside a tree. The baby runs back and forth playfully at first with a twig in his mouth. When his mother decides to lie down for a rest by the tree, the baby climbs up the side of it and leaps off, into the air and over his mother. As if he's had enough of the antics for a few minutes, the baby gorilla lies down, joining his mother and the two enjoy a few moments of tenderness. The mother gorilla reaches out to her young and strokes him. Perhaps the most fascinating thing about gorillas is how much of ourselves we see in them!
