Gorilla in a Pool – level 1
03-07-2017 07:00
There is a gorilla at the Dallas Zoo in the USA. He is famous for his funny viral videos.
A zookeeper films a new video of him. He plays in a big wading pool. He spins and splashes. Zookeepers explain his movements. They say that he feels playful and happy.
The pool is an enrichment item. Zookeepers have it to interest the gorillas and other animals.
Difficult words: viral video (a video that many people see), wading pool (a big container for water that you can walk in or sit in), enrichment (making something more interesting).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
