Laugh Out Loud Moment: Gorilla Mom Has Had Enough Of Her Older Son's Jealousy

June 10, 2024

Parenting is a challenge, no matter the species. Recently, we witnessed a hilarious moment that perfectly captures the universal struggles of motherhood – in the gorilla world.

At a zoo in Japan, a gorilla mom was dealing with a classic case of sibling rivalry. Her eldest son, clearly jealous of his new baby brother, had been acting out for attention. After enduring his antics for a while, she finally reached her limit.

She decided to teach him a lesson he wouldn't forget – by spitting water right in his face! It was such an unexpected moment that I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Young gorillas can be extremely jealous of younger siblings.
