Gorilla Fight Attack Rare Male Female Silverback Scream vocalize

Rare view of gorilla fight where the female fights with a male. Few, if any, views exist of a solitary female gorilla attacking a male silverback. Very few videos exist of adult gorillas fighting each other, other than of ones showing young gorillas or playing gorillas This video shows a fight between an adult female and a male. The female comes out ahead. Both scream and she hits him several times.

In addition very few videos show gorilla vocalization. It this video the gorillas scream at each other.. They also hit each other with their fists in a boxing manner. Few if any videos show this behavior.

The individuals gorillas involved in this fight are normally very docile friendly gorillas. They are having a bad day.

Although males gorillas are said to be dominant, videos often show that this is untrue. The male of the group is outnumbered by females and when he gets out of line, the females let him know. If he is out of line quite a bit, the females may even replace him. We have more videos of female gorillas in control. Also shown is some mating behavior in the young gorillas and tool use as a gorilla uses a drum for a chair.

Also shown is Colo the worlds oldest and first captive-born gorilla. She is watching them because the are in her cage. Colo has a lot of personality in spite of her age. On May 26, 2009, Colo (age 52) escaped her cage and wandered in the hallway. This happened a few days after this video was taken. The zoo closed down for 45 minutes. She finally returned after they offered her yogurt.

**The gorilla (gorilla gorilla) is the largest of all living primates. These African apes are divided into two species and 4 or 5 subspecies. Their DNA is 97-98% identical to that of humans and they are considered the next closest relative after the chimpanzee. Gorillas can be over 6 feet tall and weight over 500 lbs. They are highly intelligent. Some such as Koko have been taught a subset of sign language. They use tools for a number of purposes.

The Columbus Zoo is the top rated in the country. Because of its high attendance, planners are thinking of adding a hotel.

Domestic abuse is what I see here. There is evidence and I think he can probably get a lawyer to help fight his case.
