Jambo was a silverback gorillawho lived in the Jersey Zoo (USA) until 1992, the date of his death. One day, while Jambo was in his compound, a five-year-old boy named Levan Merritt fell into him, leaving him completely dazed and unconscious.
The crowd was horrified to see the gorilla pounce on the boy, however, he taught them an incredible lesson: he approached the child and covered him, as if she understood that he was in danger.
