Living with Gorillas

Synopsis
Looks at the work of primatologist Magdalena Bermejo who is studying the western lowland gorilla near the once-deserted village of Lossi in the Congo Basin. Skilled local trackers help her look for the gorillas, and her study focuses on a 350 pound male silverback and his family. Whilst conducting her research she has to contend with sweat bees and stinging ants.
