Slinking Away
Bobo had been a formerly gregarious gorilla, happily greeting the sanctuary staff whenever they approached. This is why Elissa found it so odd that he had begun dashing off whenever she approached him.
But Elissa would not give up, and eventually, she would manage to sidle up to Bobo without him running off (or noticing her). When she looked closer at whatever it was that he had held on to for so long, she was amazed to see that it was not a thing, but an animal!
Small Sweetheart
As soon as Bobo realized that Elissa was peering over his shoulder, however, he bolted off into the tall grass once more. He was not going to let anyone get in the way of his mission and seemed incredibly protective of his new friend.
While Elissa could hear the adorable cries of the tiny creature living in Bobo’s palm, it was far too tiny to be recognized, especially from so far away. Elissa was sure that she would need to outsmart Bobo if she was to help him with his new charge.
