Monkeying Around - Gorilla Ajabu and Colobus Chase

As Ajabu will have to wait a little longer to play with the new baby girl in the troop, he makes do with chasing the black and white colobus monkey around that share the habitat with the troop. I believe it's wonderful natural enrichment.
Ajabu is lying on the rope. The colobus monkey sits just behind him, watching. They both simultaneous jump, swing off the rope.
In the next clip, down the bottom, Ajabu moves past Kamba, the oldest member in the troop and chases after the monkey. Both the species seem to enjoy teasing each other. Ajabu sits on the log, first beating his chest at the monkey then hitting the log. He wants to be chased. The colobus monkeys gang up and jump at Ajabu. He moves back but then swings his arm and moves towards the monkey again. Ajabu gives it a good try, but they are just too agile for him to catch them.
My favourite bit is where Ajabu got a branch with some leaves and teases the monkey with it, as they watch him eat.
Even his mum Shinda climbs after the monkeys, doing a splits on the robes, before deciding it's no good and climbs back down again. Ajabu has one more jump at the colobus.
