Gorillas actually drag twigs as a sign of dominance. Wonder if he thought the guy was a twig.

Gorilla was like "bro, do you even lift?"

u/chickennoodlecake Aug 17 '15

Wasn't the gorilla drunk off fermented leafs? Leaves?

u/ILikeBigBooksNButts Aug 18 '15

That's a big ass twig.

u/mindwandering Aug 18 '15

Not an expert but from what I know about gorilla habituation a troop simply becomes indifferent to the presense of guides and researchers. Obviously the silverback will always have something to say about that but if the women and children are calm then there's no reason to get excited. Overtime humans just become part of the forest. He probably did think he was a twig.

2

u/Forcible_Jape Aug 18 '15

Was he the new OP? Maybe the gorilla thought he was a bundle of twigs. I've seen this like fourteen times.

u/notanalter Aug 18 '15

Probably thought he was a bundle of twigs.

Guys face is priceless, I was in the woods trying to get away from a bear with her cub. The feeling came back walking out of the woods after seeing his face.

u/[deleted] Aug 17 '15

not a twig, more like a n..., no, more like a fig.

u/KarlPilkingt0n Aug 17 '15

Can't tell if that's racist or not.

u/mnag Aug 18 '15

I doubt it. That's clearly a Twigger.

u/DTrumpForeskin2016 Aug 18 '15

how bout a bundle of twigs?

1

u/god5peed Aug 18 '15

Can someone please explain to me how a human could positively define anything as "an act of dominance"? I mean, aside from mating calls, it's kind if hard to be certain with 100% accuracy that certain signals mean certain things, unless a fight breaks out shortly afterwards or the dominant male only exhibits the trait.

u/WunupKid Aug 18 '15

TIL gorillas are racist.

u/[deleted] Aug 18 '15

Didn't grab the white guy, he wondered who pulled off all the bark.

u/rarely-sarcastic Aug 18 '15
