In 2013, I reported mountain gorillas drinking water using the back of their hand, a rare observation in mountain gorillas as they are known to get the majority of their fluid intake from the vegetation that they eat. Young gorilla enjoy looking at their reflections in the water, thinking that there are other gorillas down there,” Wild mountain gorillas enjoy playing in water specially young ones who often perceive their own reflection in the water as a friendly companion mimicking their every movement.” I observed also l a young gorilla making gestures or trying to touch it own reflection.
