    Yes that goes without saying.

    But we won’t see a gorilla being more active than necessary for gains. That’s what I was trying to say.

    Any responsible animal-keeper will furnish the habitat with enrichment structures/items that will provide all the exercise their wards require. Poorly-kept animals (or especially lazy ones) will lose muscle tone and put on fat.

    One reason why I didn’t go to any zoo in Japan while visiting.
