Kewl pic, Don! I love that you can "feel" his/her personality from the image. I bet he/she is a real prankster! Thanks for sharing.Don Johnson September 08, 2006
Thank you everyone. One minute this gorilla was pensive, the next playful. This image captured her playful side (I think it was a female, but what do I know -- I'm not a gorilla). #3282844Crystal M. Gove September 08, 2006
