#Gorilla #Shabani
May 2024.
Gorilla beating-chest (drumming) is one of the methods of communication, and on this day the drumming of joyful tones was echoing through the gorilla house.
Especially Shabani, a silverback gorilla, was beating his chest repeatedly.
His drumming has an accentuated treble sound.
If I were to use an analogy, it would be like the African percussion instrument, the djembe.
And because the shabani hits the chest at high speed, it sounds very powerful.
His son, Kiyomasa, also does a lot of drumming, but he is still no match for Shabani.
Now, Shabani and Kiyomasa had been at loggerheads until a few days ago, but on this day Shabani and Kiyomasa were calm.
Shabani was beating his chest toward Kiyomasa many times. But because of Shabani's expression and the gentle tone of his chest-beating, Kiyomasa was also beating his chest back toward Shabani.
After that, the two played with happily.
However, it was Annie, Shabani's daughter, who was probably the most pleased that Shabani had regained his composure.
Whenever Shabani drummed, Annie, who was far away from them, would drum back.
And when she saw Shabani and Kiyomasa playing with each other, she tried to mess with her grandmother, Nene.
Nene was angry with Annie, but maybe Annie just wanted to play with Nene.
Silverback gorilla can calm his group with the sound of chest beating.
