Description
Western lowland gorilla.
I ran against this guy in a dimly lit establishment, and was pulled to him watching his face expression. While I was wondering what's going on through his mind, I pressed the shutter and thought that I caught him in a rather contemplative mood as he rested his left hand on his forehead. Interestingly, as I was later made aware, most of the female viewers were led into the picture by following his right hand.
The western lowland gorilla is a subspecies of the western gorilla that lives primarily in central Africa. It is the smallest subspecies of gorilla. A male standing erect can be up to 5-6 feet tall and weigh 300-400 lbs, and females are almost as tall, but weigh only about half that much. They are very social beings and extremely gentle.
