A recent video shared on social media is drawing massive attention for capturing a rather unexpected moment between a tourist and two gorillas during a wildlife visit in Uganda. Posted by the Instagram page Mountain Gorillas, the clip has quickly gone viral, with users online calling it nothing short of a 'jungle soap opera'.
Gorilla seen tugging woman's hair
In the video, a woman is seen crouched near a group of gorillas as part of a travel group. While she remains still, one of the gorillas suddenly reaches out and pulls her hair, leaving her visibly surprised. Those around her react with a mix of laughter and shock, while the woman herself starts laughing moments later.
Another gorilla steps in immediately
Before the moment escalates, another gorilla– believed to be female– quickly appears on screen. She approaches the scene, slaps the gorilla responsible for pulling the woman's hair, and drags him away from the group.
The interaction lasts only a few seconds, but has been enough to spark a wave of reactions online.
