gorillas playing at the zoo.................vulture freezing his tootsies off

Made trip to the Lincoln Park Zoo. The gorillas were playing a game. The huge male silverback would take a scrap of fabric they had in with them and throw it over his head to hide himself completely from the little baby gorilla. The baby would pause, looking, then attack the big male and take the fabric off him. They do a couple laps around the pen and do it again. Unbelievable to see a huge mountain of male wild-beast hiding himself under a shiny piece of fabric. Pure awesome.
