Gorilla bonds with a young boy over other gorillas’ pictures

We all know we were apes before we turned into humans so, of course, there are many similarities that we share with them. Sometimes, we see a human in an ape and sometimes an ape in a human. Jelani, a handsome silverback gorilla at Louisville Zoo, Kentucky, was spotted having the best “bro time” with a visitor at the zoo.

He showed a gorilla photos of other gorillas on his phone.

The young boy started showing Jelani his pictures with other gorillas.

After looking at a few pictures for a few minutes, Jelani sat down asking the boy to keep swiping his phone to show the other pictures.

For the first time, Jelani was very well entertained.

Watch how the two jelled together over a few gorilla pictures.
