Wonderful capture and motif. Beautiful but sad portraying. I heard there is only 700 left in the world. The main problem for the gorillas is... That humans are the last link in the food chain. Humans have no natural enemies, except for themselves. So they will destroy the gorillas first, then the planet earth, and the human race is next. #:o) This portrait is a good enviromental reminder.

''Silverback Gorillas share 98% of their DNA with us. At last count there were less than 800 of these magnificent creatures left in the wild.'' FIRST, WONDERFUL photowork!! .... Second, 'they' MISSED the 2% DUMB gene we 'humans' seemed to have received? .... WINK?
