Video date: April 13, 2024
In the morning, Shabani and the others came out of the basement looking the same as usual.

0:02 AM9;30-AM10;30
After breakfast, Shabani and AI snuggled up close together.
Ai leaves Shabani's place and Shabani moves to where Nene and Kiyomasa are
From this point on, it seemed to me that Shabani was intimidating Kiyomasa.
Later, Kiyomasa came to Shabani's place, but Shabani never played with Kiyomasa.

6:00 AM10;30-AM11;30
Time before lunch
Shabani becomes blatantly intimidating to Kiyomasa.
Shabani chased Kiyomasa around as he approached, and it felt like he was trying to keep him away from the female.
When the door to lunch opened, Kiyomasa was usually the first to enter, but Shabani would have none of it

12:42 AM11;30-PM13;30
Lunch begins.
All gorillas fed as usual, no gorilla had no appetite.
After lunch, Kiyomasa becomes provocative toward Shabani.
That behavior went on for a long time.
The female gorillas that usually follow Kiyomasa never approached him.

15:38 PM13;30-PM15;00
Female gorillas gathered around Shabani, and Kiyomasa was isolated.
Shabani was often near Ai.
Back indoors, when Kiyomasa tried to approach the AI, Shabani shooed Kiyomasa away.
Then all the gorillas took a break for a while and went back to the basement.

※The above is how I feel about it, so if I'm wrong, please let me know in the comments
Since it was a holiday, there were many visitors to the zoo, and I apologize that the video was not shot well, or that there were loud voices in the video.🙇
I will upload the next day later.
