Gorilla walks on two legs?

I don't see what the big deal is. Lee has been doing it for five or six years now.[/QUOTE said:
Careful - you may begin to resemble a Samsonite suitcase to the big guy....
 
That a gorilla would do this makes me suspect that he is trying to emulate the humans that he sees, and he may think that he is one, depending on how he was socially imprinted soon after birth.

Jay Leno showed that clip last night......and said he recognized the walk.

He then put up a side by side video of the gorilla and Larry the Cable Guy walking.

Hilarious....their walks were just alike.
 
BTW, pongids (gorillas) are apes, not monkeys. Some members here have confused them. And I think that Jay Leno has.

It's fun to speculate on which wild apes might have raised Tarzan, had he been real. They would be an unknown species, but closest to gorillas. Probably more upright.

I have seen a photo of a very large unknown ape or monkey shot many years ago in South America, I think in Brazil. Alas, they (explorers) did not take many photos, and DNA testing was unknown then. The animal attacked the men, who fired defensively. Hung up, it was as tall as the men.

I wonder how many unknown primates may still exist, apart from the Bigfoot/Sasquatch controversy.
