Do you have Gorilla Knowledge?

So I was in Heroic Halls of Origination and we needed an interrupt on a boss. Since there wasn't anyone in the group that could interrupt, another hunter in the group went and tamed a gorilla from Un'goro. After talking to the gorilla, it gave me some sagely advice and I feel like I will never be the same again. My eyes have been opened and my life is now complete now that I have earned the much-coveted Gorilla Knowledge.

Gorilla Knowledge is not a destination but rather the first step on the road to unlocking the mysteries of Monkey Business. -_-

Of course not. That is why Gorilla Knowledge is only the first step.

I just have to say there is something wrong with the gorillas...really and truly. As some of you know, I've been adding to the pet emotes. Now, I did indeed add to the gorillas. However, I have seen and heard about them emoting things I never put in there. And that were not part of the original addon. Where they came from, I have no earthly idea and they are not in the pet emote Editor, either. Now this. Something is wrong with gorillas. I knew they couldn't be trusted!

Stupid question, but how in the hell are you talking to a hunter pet?
I am so very confused

Me too, but I want one! Which gorilla is that? Is it something you need to tame before Cata then it talks after?

I believe the Gorilla is an npc that is actually tameable, and after taming the game somehow keeps the dialogue options. Honestly I don't expect that to make it into live, they'll probably fix it.

I must tame him and name him Ishmael!
+10 internets if you guess reference.
Oh, and apologies...
Hi there! First post ever, but thought this was epic enough to warrent the post.

Someone else mentioned him here:

I believe it happens as a result of a quest in Un'goro, but so far I've been unable to confirm, and I cant find where to start the 2-part quest chain from : / The quest that I believe makes the talking gorilla possible is called Ever Watching From Above and involves an npc (A Maiden of Grief type) named Nablya.

The narrator of Moby Dick, eldest son of Abraham, Captain Nemo's first mate in League of Extraordinary Gentelmen, or Ishmael Beah?
Not a very clear reference, it being such a well used name.

If the gorilla was white, I'd get it?

Oh, it's a bit tricky, but I believe I know what's being referenced.
