Video of Mountain Gorillas from the Humba family
Category: Mountain Gorillas | Date: Apr 26 2007 | By: admin
I know that recent videos of Mountain Gorillas are always fun. Here is one taken about 10 days ago of the Humba family, which as you know from Paulin’s blog was thought to be heading to Rwanda and then stuck around for some more Congo fun! Here are three of his 9-member family eating the trees they are actually sitting in!

Hey Chris, the Landrover is coming on great by the way: the new engine is in, and the guys are now working on the interior and few other bits and pieces before it gets its final paint job.
Will take some pics and do a post in a day or two…

i notice in the videos, you get rather close to the gorillas. do they ever try to be playful with you folks or does the silverback ever get protective and try to scare you away?
they are really wonderful to watch. thank you for your hard work. please share more with us.

Hi Gillian, we try and keep a distance of 7 meters from the gorillas to reduce the possibility of disease transmission. Obviously the gorillas haven’t read the rule book properly and the little ones are always very keen to check out the interesting tourists!
