Gorillas are fascinating animals, and if you’ve ever seen one up close, you know how expressive they can be. One little girl definitely knows this first hand, and it will be an experience that she’ll remember for the rest of her life. She visited a gorilla enclosure, and found out that she and the baby gorilla she spotted from behind the glass aren’t too different from one another! This little girl surely left the zoo exhibit having a much better understanding about gorillas than when she came in that day.
The video starts inside the gorilla observatory, with the camera facing the little girl and an adorable baby ape in the background. The little girl fearlessly approaches the gorilla, who is just inches away behind the protective glass. She giggles and throws her hands up at the glass. The gorilla isn’t phased in the slightest, as he just keeps walking past the little girl. However, that doesn’t last long – and soon the two lock eyes.What happens next is as adorable as it is fascinating!

1The little girl and the gorilla seem to speak the same language, as they start to mirror each other’s moves and play with one another. The baby gorilla then sways back and fourth, looking straight at the youngster. They really seem to be enjoying each other’s company, all while everyone around laughed at the heartwarming scene! Lucky for us, the little girl’s family sent the hilarious video to America’s Funniest Home Videos for all to see.
