Sure. Why not? It’s okay for a gorilla to love a human, just not to love a human.

Well arent humans and gorillas cousins so if we humans can feel love im pretty sure that gorilla can feel love.

I’m pretty sure that all animals can feel love, at least when it comes to their offspring.

Well maybe i should explain a little more. I am a gorilla!I do live at the bronx zoo! because of my trainer, i was giving the power to speak… maybe i should say communicate.She left me with the computer laptop.
She will see all that I have written. This will be the first time she will know how far I’ve come with my learning, I can read,” Let us sit upon the ground and tell sad tales about the death of Kings.“I am hairy and have a huge face,large nostrils, large head and body. Inside,I am human.How can i show her human not gorilla.

Except for crocodiles… They eat their young.

Though maybe they do that out of love.

I’m sure they can feel love. I think love is less prefrontal cortex and more base, more instinctual.
