This gorilla has set the bar high as a leader, father and group member. 💛

Gicurasi, whose name (appropriately) means “May,” achieved a huge milestone this month: he is now 30 years old! Gicurasi has lived his whole life in the historic Pablo gorilla group. Years ago, he assumed dominance from his father, Cantsbee. Even though Gicurasi recently ceded the role to the next generation, he continues to share strong bonds with the group members.
