Bari🦧(orangutan) was curious about what his neighbor Shou🦍(gorilla) was eating, so he peeked over

Hamamatsu City Zoo Shou (male), born in Cameroon in 1977 (estimated) *Lump above the eye* From Hamamatsu City Zoo It became swollen over 10 years ago. Although medication reduced it to some extent, further reduction required surgery. However, this would require general anesthesia, and for a gorilla—who is physically large but has a very sensitive nature—anesthesia places a significant physical and mental strain on the body. This is especially true for Shou, who is now elderly. Fortunately, he doesn’t seem to mind being touched or show any signs of pain, and since it’s not malignant, we are monitoring the situation and administering medication as needed.
