An escaped chimpanzee was seen strolling around a residential area of Saudi's capital city.
The wild animal was filmed and coaxed by several people to return to its cage.
Some even offered it a banana.
The video shows the 'gorilla' huddled next to the tyres of a car as some braver residents tried to bring it back to its home, as per Erem news report.
It wasn't clear whether it fled from a circus or a private owner. Residents reported it wandered around for 30 minutes before police intervened and subdued the animal.
Tweeps have been going ape over the incident, with some calling for a ban on keeping wild animals as pets.
