A gorilla walking like a human on two legs is quite a rare phenomenon.
Louis, the 18-year-old male gorilla in Philadelphia zoo in Pennsylvania hates to get his hands dirty and rather opts to walk upright like a human.
Taking to Twitter, the Philadelphia zoo has shared a video of Louis walking upright as they captioned it, “Although gorillas occasionally walk on two legs (bipedal), it is less common. Not for Louis though — he can often be seen walking bipedal when his hands are full of snack or when the ground is muddy (so he doesn’t get his hands dirty)! ”

Louis wants to be just like a human and ensure he has clean hands before dinner so he walks on his two legs — just like us.
Louis, who is one of two bachelor gorillas at the zoo, was born in May 1999 at the St. Louis Zoo.
