via IFTTT Gorilla Lope NEWS! He's in France at Zoo du Bassin d'Arcachon and he met his new troop! The French Zoo wrote "In the past few weeks, 2 gorillas have arrived to form a group with male silverback Dishi. Indeed, Aybo arrived from Rotterdam Zoo in the Netherlands and Lope arrived from Twycross Zoo in the UK. The contact of the 3 gorillas was done gradually and calmly. All 3 of them are now together on a daily basis and interacting positively!" I hope he's as happy as he was in this short :-) We will miss him so much, but I'm so happy to finally get this news. Good luck Lope with your next chapter in life. Show the silverback who's boss! lol.
