Part of a Gorilla Keeper’s role is training, which is a simple and easy way to build trust between Keepers and animals. Watch as Sadiki voluntarily participates in what we call an exercise session 🦍 These 5-minute training sessions ensure that Sadiki, who weighs 440lbs, gets the proper muscle conditioning he needs. At any time, Sadiki can choose to walk away, but he enjoys these sessions with Sue, especially because he is rewarded with squash and carrot pieces. #WorldGorillaDay #TrainingTuesday
