Description
This photo is the Eastern Gorilla silverback in the Cleveland Zoo in Ohio. In the wild they are endangered with fewer than 4,500 in Africa. The silverback is the dominant male and leader of the troupe. He is about 400 pounds and that is double the size of the females. He is the protector of the family and breaks up any quarrels or issues that occur. I loved how he was just hanging out on this rock in deep thought. He was so cute. Contemplation.
