A male gorilla who arrived in Prague Zoo last year has been recorded frolicking around and enjoying the spring sun. 

The 25-year-old Kisumu, who was transported from Austria to Czechia last September, is seen playfully fighting with a younger gorilla named Ajabu who has lived at Prague Zoo’s gorilla pavilion for several years. 

They also join two other female gorillas – Kijivu and Shinda.
