This is a closeup of Tibirikwata, the dominant silverback of the Ozuzogo Family in Bwindi, Uganda. He is the leader of all 17 family members, and weighs about 450 pounds. We got to about 6 feet from him while he was eating.

Michael, amazing photo. f/l
Michael Cinnamond replied:
Thank you Cindy. I had a moment with this silverback that I will never forget as he charged at me to within about a foot. But later figured out it wasn't me he was charging, it was a younger silverback behind me.
