the grunt, mud, protector, a perfect life, the end, vine
- Finally, Ivan reveals a bit about his past. He was born in a rain forest in Central Africa and had a twin sister. He loved to chase his sister around the forest, so his parents named her Tag.
- The two would bounce on their dad's belly until he let out his signature grunt.
- Ivan was a born artist, drawing pictures with mud on rocks and on his mom's back, so they named him Mud.
- He and his twin sis Tag were the youngest of family of eight kids, and their father was the quintessential silverback gorilla—guide, teacher, and protector.
- As Mud, he lived the good life, spending much of his time on his mother's back.
- This all ended the day the humans captured them and put them in a truck, though.
- Ivan was the only survivor, and from that day on, he knew he had to let the old life die.
