@@fritz6462 Well there's a difference between being within a few feet's distance and literally touching. I mean think about it. These animals are MASSIVE. They are not worried about humans a few feet away from them, however, if they are within striking distance they are at a much higher risk. You would be more cautious about a man 2 feet away than a man 20 feet away, yeah? They were dangerously close to the man, even getting as close as to touch him. He needed to stay as still as possible because he didn't want them to get spooked. Far away though, the Gorillas aren't even really concerned about a man. They do dwarf us in size and power after all. They also might be accustomed to people. That does seem to be a walking trail so I wouldn't be surprised if they are pretty fine with humans around.

Silverbacks are wired very specifically to fight other silverbacks trying to steal their harem of females: humans are obviously large apes, which is disturbing and a potential threat to them, but if you stare at the ground and chew on grass it's also easy for them to assume you are some kind of gross hairless beta ape outcast that's trying to join their pod, which is a common thing with mountain gorillas and not a threat at all.

Making eye contact is indeed often percieved as a provocation by male gorillas, but usually they won't instantly maul you to death because of it, just go into "combat mode" (which is enough to scare the shit out of most humans), preparing for a challenge. This was dangerous because the male had babies with him, and as virtually all animals they're very protective. Staring the silverback down could very easily result in getting bashed to a pulp there. The man knew what to do - make yourself small, be quiet, look away and act disinterested.

@@quill7889 yes porkies can be quite large. One came into my barn one day, injured, and I let it stay. I couldn't treat its injuries for obvious reasons... but it died a couple of days later. It ate about one half of a support beam while it was there...I fixed that. At least it had a quiet place for a little while. . I think encounters with wild animals are all interesting...

The silverback was literally more worried about his child straying away than anything else. What an amazing experience.

Wow, what a brave soul you are!!! Such an incredible experience you just had. Thank you for sharing.

Amazing. Thank you for sharing this. These are such majestic animals--who showed strength and gentleness.

My guess is that the silverback has seen many humans and all of the humans have been harmless. It’s easy to forget that the silverback is letting his family interact with TWO humans. The little nudge dad gave his toddler was probably just to say “It’s OK, but stay behind him”. The silverback clearly didn’t consider the humans as rivals, and he was OK with his family greeting the human with some friendly grooming.

Love the way how the dad was making them behave, making them sit, when they got too intrusive, he'd pull them back, the little snort he gave to the kids was like, "Settle down". It was a great family moment!

If I was in that situation, I would be equal parts amazed and terrified. Gorillas are fascinating animals and are much gentler and more human than we used to believe. But at the same time, they are big and strong, and so I'd do all that I could to not upset them.

That was incredible, thank you! ❤
