He’s A Wildlife Photographer, But Keep Your Eyes On The Giant Gorilla…

Although we may be amazed by many different types of animals, there are likely to be some that just continue to surprise us, each time we see them. That is often the case with gorillas, which is why they are one of the most popular animals that people enjoy watching at the zoo. It just seems that they offer something special, and there is something interesting to see, each time you look at them.

That is not only true of gorillas in captivity, they are also quite interesting in the wild as well. When John, the man in this video, decided to go off on an expedition in Uganda for 2 weeks looking for mountain gorillas, he got more than what he bargained for. His intention was to take a few pictures, if they were able to find some gorillas in the first place but they ended up with an experience that will last for a lifetime.

The day probably started rather normally, with the group getting together and planning out the activities. They were out looking for gorillas at the time but when a male silverback gorilla showed up, it probably took them by surprise. Now, I’ll be the first one to admit that if I saw something like this in the wild, I would probably run in the other direction. John, on the other hand, decided to stick around and snap some pictures. In the end, he was even accepted by the gorilla, and the result was amazing.

You have probably seen some interesting wildlife videos in the past, and some are put together by professionals. What you are about to see in this video, however, is sure to make your jaw drop. The interaction between John and this huge silverback is more than amazing, it is a once in a lifetime experience.
