Are we confused by this attraction? Sure.

There is a gorilla that goes by the name of Shabani that has us many women around the world feeling a little… flustered.

We’re not saying that the animal is “hot”, just really, really, really good looking.

We understand this is an unusual angle to take on the gorilla from Japan ‘s Higashiyama Zoo and Botanical Garden , so we’ll just let this compilation of the

hot

gorilla explain our feelings.

It’s like, what are you even thinking, Shabani? He’s so broody and deep and handsome and…

OK we need to stop going down this track, we know.

But it’s not just us. The devilishly handsome primate has seen a spike in female attendances to the Zoo since moving there in 2007, according to Rocket News.

So you’re welcome, world.
