Ndakasi clearly thinks she can reach the tree tops.

    just warms my heart seeing these two girls playing as two baby gorillas should be in their natural environment after all they’ve been through! :)

    Aren’t they so healthy - what a joy it must be to work with them.

    She won’t be able to make a premature bid for freedom in the forest from up there, will she?

    Glad you all like the video. We have actually uploaded it again in better quality, as first time round the res was not good enough. I couldn’t believe it when I saw Ndakasi so high up Alexandra.. but apparently she is always watching Andre, Richard, Alfred or Patrick (all the carers) out of the corner of her eye. So while she is keen to explore it appears she also know where home is :) Yesterday actually the carers were also planting wild celery in the larger plot for the girls for the future - she was having a good look at them doing that too!

    Wow! More like orangutans than gorilla!
    I love these little girls.
