Conservationist Damian Aspinall and his wife Victoria have an amazing encounter with two male gorillas in Gabon. These two gorillas, Djalta and Ima, were released into the wild in 2003 from Howletts Wild Animal Park in England.

Well, they have a lot more courage than I would have. I wonder what he would have done if the gorilla had picked his wife up and retreated into the jungle. Thanks for the link.

Beautiful story. She is much braver than I would be. I couldn't do that.

Very funny - especially the hat.

I thought it was odd that he was sitting three feet from the gorilla waiting to see if it would be hostile.
