Tokyo: Hundreds of visitors on Tuesday celebrated the 19th birthday of a male gorilla popular for his good looks at a zoo in Japan's Nagoya city.

Shabani's handlers gave him a cake decorated with his favourite vegetables such as pumpkins, tomatoes and bell peppers, public broadcaster NHK reported.

About 500 visitors cheered when Shabani emerged from his cage and took a big bite out of the cake. 

Some said "he is cool," and others shouted "happy birthday".

In human years, Shabani is in his late 30s.

A woman said he is masculine and looks very good, even better than her husband.
