Baby Gorilla Challenges the Silverback! 😱 | Chaos in the Troop

Kayembe shows off his wild side—playing rough with the only two troopmates who can handle it: silverback Mokolo and Aunt Nneka! Baby Kunda makes a bold (but tiny) attempt to swipe food, while Freddy and Kebi keep things calm during a family lunch. Even Tusa, the troop’s most independent gorilla, joins the scene—reminding us every member has a role. From silverback strength to baby mischief, this video has it all: gorilla play, toddler drama, and heartwarming family moments.

This troop is part of Cleveland Metroparks Zoo’s Western lowland gorilla family. Mokolo leads, Freddy brings wisdom, Kebi and Nneka add balance, Tusa stands strong in her quiet independence, and the youngsters—Kayembe, Kunda, and Jameela (born via rare C-section at Fort Worth Zoo)—bring joy, energy, and hope for the future of this critically endangered species.
