A gorilla picks up a kitten ... what it does immediately after.. is amazing!

If you are looking for compelling evidence of the link between apes and humans, then this video is for you! Here we witness a gorilla named Koko who sees the return of two kittens that he had previously befriended and chosen from a litter of seven.

Although some time has passed, the gorilla's behavior makes one believe that the return of the kittens is a pleasant surprise for him! Besides, treating the kittens as if they were his own children; by hugging and caressing them and allowing them to climb all over him -- he even tries to get them to play with stuffed animals and offers them other toys! All of this bears a close resemblance to a human parent, does it not?
