Once we came upon the gorilla exhibit,
we entered in to a little cave with a
glass window that puts you right at
their level.
(being a little hesitant because in '04 a gorilla escaped from this zoo)
The kids ran down to touch the glass,
while us mom's stayed back with the
stroller train.
And then...
without warning...
that crazy male gorilla
charges the glass and kicks it!
Not just a wimpy kick.
We're talking a full speed run with a
karate chop right at our kids.
Needless to say.
I screamed,
they screamed,
we ALL screamed!!
This video doesn't show his black-belt moves,
but none-the-less you can see
he meant business!
After he "eyed" us all,
he would casually turn around and sit back down.
Then a few minutes later he did it again.
And again, but adding in a few chest poundings
for emphasis.
We were all terrified that the glass would shatter with
his powerful blows.
But thankfully we escaped!

I've never been so entertained at the zoo before.
I might just go back again!

Hum...no, I would not have stayed there. You guys are super brave! Jane Goodall would be proud!
Too funny! I love how the kids are crying in the background. :)
That would have totally freaked me out!
