【gorilla】The Momotaro family of Western gorillas is afraid of thunder. 雷に恐怖する、ニシゴリラのモモタロウ一家【京都市動物園】

今回の動画は、その日晴れていたのに突然の雷を伴う大雨で驚くゴリラ達の動画になります。
普段、あまり二足歩行で歩かないモモタロウが二足歩行でうろうろしたり、梁から落ちそうになったりと、本当に雷が怖いみたいでした。
ゲンキもかなり、恐怖心からか震えていて雷が怖かった様です。
The video this time is a video of gorillas who were surprised by the heavy rain accompanied by a sudden thunder although it was sunny that day.
Momotaro, who normally doesn't walk on two legs, wanders around on two legs or falls off a beam, so it seems like he's really scared of thunder.
Genki seemed to be trembling because of fear, and he was afraid of thunder.

Some people wrote in the comment section, "Why gorillas are afraid of lightning, and why zookeepers do not evacuate gorillas to their rooms?"
I shot this video at 3:00 pm and about 30 minutes left, the gorillas were planning to go home.There are several reasons for that.
As a result, the gorilla's room was put in by the zookeeper to clean and prepare dinner, and it was not possible to put the gorillas in the room immediately for safety.
In addition, it was sunny this day, and there were only tens of minutes until thunder and rain, and we could not immediately evacuate the gorillas to the room.
As for the danger of lightning, it is all right because there are lightning rods installed in the zoo main building and the gorilla house.
Due to thunder and rain, the keeper completed the preparation of the room early and evacuated the gorillas to an indoor room earlier than usual.
