Oumbi The Silverback Gorilla Is In A Doghouse

Oumbi The Silverback Gorilla Is In A Doghouse
Ozala the female Gorilla from Twycross zoo seemed to have a problem with Oumbi, the father of their kids. Both the adults are sitting outside, but finding it hard to look at each other.
Shufai their son is behind mums back. When Ozala finally does look at Oumbi with an irritable face, he starts looking back at her. They hold their gaze for a second, but then Ozala makes a move towards the Silverback – like she is telling him to stop looking at her. Then Oumbi runs off in a huff, arms waving and he looks like he just wants some peace and quiet. I can hear him in my mind saying, women just leave it, stop nagging me. lol He moves to another corner, but gets followed by Ozala with Shufai on her back. He then gives Ozala a little push and runs off again. Everybody follows Oumbi again, but walk past him as he just sits down. Finally he gets some peace. For now anyway :-)
