Humane officials have named the stray shepherd 'Mighty Joe Young.'
Video footage shows the gorilla and the canine sizing each other up for a few tense moments as onlookers attempted to coax the pup out of the enclosure. Eventually, the dog ran across the enclosure, passing the gorilla, who stood its ground.
Zoo staff noticed and promptly moved the gorilla, allowing officers with the San Diego County Humane Society to safely enter and get the dog out. Recall training is a regular part of park safety procedures, zoo officials wrote in an email to NBC 7 San Diego.
