  1. They need to determine how the dog got into the gorilla habitat before the gorillas discover the way out.

  2. He did it is a brave dog ,I truly love that dog

  3. Every video with this dog in the gorilla inclosure should have β€œLiving on the Edge” playing in the background.

  4. Hope he get adopted quickly

  5. Thank God they got the dog out of there. Those gorillas probably would've ripped it in half.

  6. I don't believe the in the coincidence that NatGeo was just lucky to be there with all their gear at the same time that a dog MIRACULOUSLY strayed into a Rilla enclosure.

    Let's just say someone out there knows something that we don't

  7. So, they shot the rilla because the dog felt threatened by an animal that was curious to see what a k9 is doing in his prison

  8. They should make a Pixar movie out of this lol

  9. One guy yelled to the dog.." Use the steps"…the dog was like , what? I don't speak English? πŸ˜†

  10. meanwhile at the zoo and balboa park……

  11. Gorilla should of tossed the mf out the enclosure

  12. They should nickname him, "Mighty Lucky."

  13. Gorillas like.
    I want me a dog sandwich lol

  14. Hope he gets adopted out soon. His family doesn’t deserve him: not neutered, not microchipped, no collar. Other reports mentioned another dog (who didn’t get into the enclosure).πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ So happy this boy is safe πŸ’–πŸΎπŸΎ

  15. That doggy will get himself a great new home because of this.

  16. Thank goodness the dog wasn't a homeless person looking for a place to sleep. The cops would have taken his doghouse to the dump and then put up spikes all over the gorilla exhibit to prevent the dog from sleeping anywhere.

  17. he doesnt look scared… he looks as happy as can be! Unaware of the dangers

  18. William Oscar Garvin: the reason why that gorilla follows the dog might be a little curious about this dog.

  19. Owuh my Gadddd!!! That dog was SO fortunate, whew! Thank God it's safe!

  20. Good thing the poor puppy wasn't at the whitehouse or Biden would have him euthanized.

  21. Mutt Looking for a snack ?

  22. Aww I hope he gets reunited with his owners or to get adopted

  23. … so the gorillas could just wonder out as well??

  24. That puppy ran the other way because he was only trying to HELP the gorillas. It's always the nice folk who you don't want to cross. And that puppy was WAAAYYY too nice.

    I been straight scared for the gorillas all video long…

  25. He's a good boy . 🐢

  26. I am so glad, that this sweet dog πŸ•πŸ•πŸ•πŸ•πŸ• did not get hurt by this gorilla 🦍🦍🦍, this gorilla just acted on instinct, glad this dog was rescued ,my heart was racing when I saw this video on the news about this dog πŸΆπŸΆπŸΆπŸΆπŸΆπŸΆπŸΆπŸŒΉπŸŒΉπŸŒΉπŸŒΉπŸŒΉπŸ•ŠοΈπŸ•ŠοΈπŸ•ŠοΈπŸ™‹πŸ™‹πŸ™‹πŸ™‹πŸ™‹πŸ™†πŸ™†πŸ™†πŸ™†πŸ™†πŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸŒΊπŸŒΊπŸŒΊπŸ•ŠοΈπŸ•ŠοΈπŸ•ŠοΈπŸ•ŠοΈπŸ•ŠοΈπŸŒΉπŸŒΉπŸŒΉπŸŒΉπŸŒΉπŸŒΊπŸŒΊπŸŒΊπŸŒΊ. Beautiful Christine chastity lampkin I would like to come to this zoo just to visit how much it cost to see these wonderful animals ❗❗❗

  27. Owner has to pay for almost deadly mistake.

  28. Someone abandoned that dog

  29. Thank goodness they didnt shoot the gorilla like last time… RIP HARAMBE!

  30. Empty the cages…. These San Diego prison guards are clearly inept.

  31. Wow 😯 amazing mighty joe young. You showed em πŸ‘ glad you are well. And kudos to humane society officer and staff β€β€πŸ™

  32. The gorillas never would have caught the dog lol at least nobody shot the Gorilla in the face which is standard protocol in the US.

  33. Glad this sweetheart is OK. I would name him Tarzan, who walked among the apes.

  34. I'm glad the dog made it.

  35. So, if the dog can get in that easily does that mean the gorillas can get out that easily?!😳
