I would guess that the Gorilla's will changed their waking and sleeping pattern to suit this.

a glass sliding window opened......the gorillas ran through....the window slide closed.

below a keeper came through a locked door, cleaned up, put fresh water and tons of bananas everywhere.......she left and locked the door.......

sliding window opens.......4 gorillas came through....2 were huge.

now they are sitting around eating their bananas and the little one is running around having fun and pounding his chest.:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl

to cool!:guitarist:guitarist

wish I had a keeper to clean and leave food in Odie's room!:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl

The way they have the view set up we wouldn't see you anyway. It has been raining there for days how do you live with that. Were lucky if we get 10 good day of rain in San Diego then it is :-6:-6:-6 the other 355 days of the year.
