This is largest (recorded) and oldest Mountain gorilla. He leads a family
known
as Sabyinyo Group. His name is Guhonda and he is over 35 years old. The
guides
refer to him as the president, but admit that Silverback number 2 has
probably
displaced him now (ie does all the 'mating'). Still he is an impressive sight
and capable of pulling down a tree or two with seemingly no real effort.
