This video was filmed on September 23, 2024.

This day was the day of the "memorial service" to honor the animals that died at the zoo.

The memorial service is held every year next to the gorilla enclosure.

(2:39〜)Every year, Gentaro watches the memorial service through glass and bars until it ends.

It's as if Gentaro is taking part in the memorial service.
