Animal stories

Scientists are asking plenty of questions a a plethora of mob and gorilla on Gorilla violence has been going on in recent observations within the past few years in the planet of the Apes. Gorillas were long considered peaceful animals in their relations among others never showing the gang and group violence long witnessed in Chimpanzees and other funny Monkees but observers in the Karisoke Research center have been witnessing violent mob violence in Gorilla troupes for some time now. Stacy Rosenbaum who has been researching Gorilla behavior for years has never seen these violent actions of Gorillas in her midst in recent weeks and worries about the increased aggression of the Gorillas as they face more increased pressures on their habitats.Ms Rosebaum of the University of Chicago in Illinois witnessed the attack. She says she was stunned.
"I had seen several reasonably aggressive intergroup interactions, as well as the more typical type where no one gets hurt," she says. "This incident started out that way, so I assumed I was recording just another species-typical interaction."
Then, Rosenbaum says, it was as if a switch was flipped. "They became these other entities that I didn't recognise at all. I'm not sure I would have been that much more surprised if they'd suddenly decided to fly."
The attack stopped about four minutes later and Inshuti, though injured, escaped. Rosenbaum says there is no doubt he could have been killed, but the intention behind the attack was unclear. "Maybe his survival just speaks to his incredible resilience," she says: Inshuti has survived plenty over the years. It is only a matter of time before the Gorilla acquires a taste for meat and the protein power that comes with it and it starts hunting other primates including man. Likewise, researchers have noted an uptick of violent behavior among ale chimps in captivity and the stories of the bizarre caged gay gorilla are already famous as many male gorillas have sexual identity problems once they are caged like animals instead of being allowed to roam as the true kings of the forest. No animal is as buff and strong as the Gorilla and if this creature becomes more violent with each other it doesn't bode well. for all land dwelling mammalian species of the world. ishunti the Gorilla got hi ass kicked but we really don't kow what caused it and if Ishunto deserved this wupping
