video shows Zola having pure fun with an enrichment opportunity during
Spotlight on Gorillas and is not a trained behavior; the music was added
afterward.

Zola, nine-years old, is one of eight Western lowland
gorillas currently living at the Calgary Zoo as part of the Association
of Zoos and Aquariums Gorilla Species Survival Plan. He loves to play
in water and keepers regularly give him the opportunity to do so as part
of the enrichment activities they plan and vary on a daily basis.
