Melissa Times: Gamers Aren't Just Human

Gamers Aren't Just Human

A boy was at the gorilla exhibit at the San Francisco Zoo when he dropped his Nintendo DSi XL.

A gorilla named Bawang saw it and started trying to figure out how it worked, flipping it and pressing her eye to it a few times.

After a few minutes one of the trainers showed up and Bawang threw the DS into the crowd. The trainer then gave Bawang an apple.

It turns out the gorillas are trained to do what Bawang did. If anything falls into the cage, they know they get a reward if they throw it back.

Check out pictures from the 2010 Transplant Games - including my Silver Medal!

You mean we get an Apple if we throw back our DSi? Damn you Steve Jobs!
