A sentimental and funny video has taken Reddit by storm, showcasing a young gorilla finding new and creative ways to bother his dad. The video, simply captioned with music notes, has garnered significant attention and sparked a slew of entertaining reactions from viewers.

In the video, the baby gorilla is seen stretching his little arm to give his dad one last poke, a gesture that many found irresistibly cute. One user humorously commented, "My son surely is an ape," drawing a parallel between the playful antics of the gorilla and typical human child behavior. Another viewer noted, "The little arm stretching for one more poke at the end. So cute."

The young gorilla's playful actions prompted some to joke about the situation. "They are just avoiding taxes at this point," one commenter quipped, while another added, "What you can't see is Dad is getting mad XP for his patience powerup." The video clearly struck a chord with parents, as evidenced by comments like, "Hey, I think my son read this same playbook," and "Lil dude is so cute! Can’t leave dad alone lol."

Despite the lighthearted nature of the video, some viewers expressed sadness over the gorillas' living conditions. One user remarked, "Honestly I feel bad that they are stuck in a glass box with some hay and few logs. WTF," while another added, "When you’re living in a concrete cage, you need to create your own entertainment."

The young gorilla's antics reminded viewers of other humorous situations. One comment stated, "The way the kid lays crumpled on the floor reminds me of the Yamcha meme so much. Playful." Another user likened the behavior to that of a pet, saying, "orange cat behaviour 😂."

Overall, the video has captivated audiences with its blend of cuteness and humor, highlighting the universal nature of playful relationships between parents and their children, whether human or animal. This adorable young gorilla has certainly won the hearts of many, even as it brings attention to the need for better living conditions for animals in captivity.
