It was a bit hard, he was eating AND inside a cave. And the lighting was very bad, this is 1600 ISO.

He looks like he's saying, "Mommy, no! Please don't make me!" :D

But anyway that picture is too dark. Probably would've been better if it weren't black/white. It is too hard to see the contrast between the gorilla and the background. Too shaded imo.

The background is darker than the Gorilla himself.
He is a very rare 30 year old Silver Back gorilla weighing over 400 pounds, and can bench press the weight of a full grown giraffe.

Yeah, this is a trophy pic. Those gorillas can get crazy and tear people apart

Well they have to test his strength with a special push/pull system for them. The gorilla pushes, it calculates the amount of force and converts it into how many pounds.
And the number = about the weight of the full grown giraffe!
