The gorilla in question is Zola, a Bronx native who is well-known for his dance moves.
"There's a lot more to this behaviour than you may think," Dallas Zoo, where Zola is living now, said.
"Enrichment helps enhance the environment and lives of animals, like Zola, by providing them with mental and physical stimulation to increase natural behaviours. [It] can take many forms, but for this spunky great ape, it means playing and spinning in his favourite blue pool!"

The music was added afterwards and the zoo keepers noted that this is not a trained behaviour.
Nobody puts Zola in a corner.
