Species: Mountain Gorilla | Location: Impenetrable Forest, Uganda
This photo was taken in during our second gorilla trek in the Impenetrable Forest in Uganda. After a 30 minute hike up the hill, we found a fairly large group of gorillas who, fortunately, ignored our presence. We were able to watch them feeding, relaxing and playing. Since we were 15-20 feet away, it was fairly easy to get some really good images.
