What better way to show your gratitude than a little bit of opera?
For the first time, wild mountain gorillas have been captured on camera singing as they eat.
A sweet chorus of humming and vocal vibrations rings out through the trees as they munch away on leaves and bark.
It took the gorilla-spy, the camera crew, a long while to finally be accepted within the wild mountain gorilla community until they felt comfortable enough to display their true modes of being.
These intimate moments are breathtaking… until you hear their flatulence from eating all day. That’s a whole different type of music!
They eat around 40lbs a day, which means, a lot of gas… The documentary video claims that “they live in a semi-permanent state of flatulence.”
Cows used to get all the blame for methane in the air, but I think these mountain gorillas should also carry some of the load!
