The silverback was just trying to get to a certain spot to feed and the people were obviously in his way. Why do humans automatically assume everything is about violence? You know they're not violent creatures, right? They're not chimpanzees. These gorillas are habituated to humans. Unless you threaten their family, they treat you as if you were just another creature in the forest. They ignore you....unless you're in their way. That silverback was quite patient. All they had to do was quietly scuttle over a bit.

He was far enough away and his body language and the sound he was making (that gurgling noise) indicated that he was ok with them being there. If he felt threatened it probably would have been a different story. But that's why they all stayed still and kept their heads down in the beginning, to show they mean no harm. Plus I'm sure the guide also makes them feel safe

In Uganda we had 2 armed rangers and a tour guide with our group of 4 people. There are lots of elephants in these mountains and they had destroyed the tracks. I had eye contact with a silverback and it was very friendly. However the trip to the gorilla family took a dangerous hike over 4 mountains, up and down very steep hills!! I will never do it again, it was a 5 hour nightmare.

There is a process by which mountain gorillas are 'tamed' to get used to the presence of strange humans. It's called habituation. For 2-3 years prior to introducing families of gorillas to tourists, guides and rangers interact with the gorillas to get them used to people. During Covid, when tourism came to a halt, it was feared the gorillas would revert to a more wild state, so the guides and rangers continued to visit them on a frequent basis.

​@@exnihilonihilfit6316 saying that about great apes is contrary to everything we've learned from research. Theyre about as complex and intelligent as small human children in many ways, and beyond that in others as they mature (though not to the level of adult human general intelligence ability). They're individuals, they can understand things in the abstract, they make tools, and have complex communication and culture norms, and societal knowledge which varies between groups and locales and diffuses at distance (such as different processes or tools for similar tasks, same species, different culture). They mediate complex social strife between themselves. Them not having the exact same kind and heights of the same kind of intelligence and vocal+dextrous ability is simply a matter of their different evolutionary pressures, but does not undermine their sentience. I bet you're trash at climbing trees or superhuman physical efforts of strength or speed. They needed that to take advantage of the environment while roaming, more than being able to change the environment itself like humans eventually did and do (now for the much worse, endangering these cousins of ours)

Like, some animals you're supposed to run, or climb a tree, or stay still, or act big and be noisy. It's also possible that the camera man has some sort of "moral obligation" to do that, so that if the Gorilla does attack, it will attack him instead. Maybe he has the Gorilla equivalent of Bear spray, or has a weapon or something that makes his chance of survival higher than that of the other people present.
