This video was filmed in the morning of December 2022 at the Ueno Zoological Gardens in Tokyo, Japan. The video starts with Toto sitting near the viewing window of the smaller grotto as usual. Toto loves relaxing there in the morning. She also checks visitors. Riki and Haoko are sitting together. Riki is eating leaves. Momoka shows up and she licks the viewing window. Toto gives up her sitting position as Momoka comes near. Toto sits next to Riki. Riki then goes to play with Momoka. Momoka starts rubbing her butt against Riki. (This is a normal behavior often seen among young gorillas.) They hug each other. Momoka leaves the grotto. As Haoko moves, Toto starts to move too. Riki is eating branches.Momoka comes back and Komomo shows up too. Momoka sits near Riki. Haoko comes back to the grotto, so does Toto. Momoka takes Toto's favorite corner again and Toto sits next to Riki. Haoko stands up and checks something. He then comes to approach Toto, but she is not having it. Riki is lying down. Momoka leans against a log. They are super relaxed. Toto is taking a nap. Momoka and Riki hug each other again. Haoko bothers sleepy Toto. A peaceful morning becomes bustling. The video ends with Toto finally left alone in the grotto.
