Momoko got furious. Toto was exhausted. Does Komomo want to be an alpha female?⎮UENO ZOO GORILLAS

This video was filmed during lunch. It is a continuation of the previous episode, which was filmed on the same day. Haoko comes out to the exhibit first, followed by Riki, Momoka, and Komomo. Toto waits for Momoko to go first, and she comes outside last, holding Sumomo on her back. Momoko collects lots of green peppers. She does not pick ginger leaves. Komomo is tackling a feeder fixed to the artificial tree. Haoko devours green peppers. While Toto is eating green peppers, Sumomo goes and gets some food for herself. Toto wants to try out a feeder fixed to the metal mesh, but as soon as she picks it up, Momoka comes over. So she gives in and leaves the place. Momoka takes ginger leaves, as does Komomo. Sumomo wants to play with the tire swing and eat at the same time. Haoko is sitting on the stairs in front of the entrance. Toto wants to enter the room, but she decides not to because of Haoko. After eating, Haoko starts chasing Momoko. Toto follows Haoko with Sumomo on her back. Momoko presents her backside to Haoko, but she leaves him too soon. Momoka sniffs Haoko's butt. Haoko probably bit Momoko. Momoko becomes furious. She starts chasing him, screaming. Riki and Momoka also join Momoko to chase Haoko. I'm not sure if Toto is assisting Momoko or Haoko. Haoko goes back indoors. The family waits for Haoko to calm down so they can go indoors too. Komomo sniffs Momoko a lot. She follows Momoko. Toto seems to be exhausted, while Sumomo looks drowsy. I hope you enjoy watching.

NB: Thought bubbles on my videos are my imagination.
