A man in his prime. At 19, Kwame - a Western Lowland Gorilla - has really come into his own. This silverback was transferred last year from the @smithsonianzoo in DC to @woodlandparkzoo in Seattle to join (and lead) a group of females whose venerable male had passed away earlier in the year. It was perfect timing for Kwame, as in the wild, males begin to assume leadership roles in their troop right around his age. On this cool autumn day, Kwame seemed right at home balancing his responsibilities: foraging through the fall foliage, calmly interacting with the girls, and posing for guests. #gorilla #westernlowlandgorilla #zoo #zooanimals #woodlandparkzoo #nationalzoo #fallfoliage #autumn (at Woodland Park Zoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5TYa6FBLTk/?igshid=18d58m1arkcrj -- source link
