After disembarking from your Kilimanjaro Safari, I recommend taking the Pangani Forest Exploration Trail back to the African village of Harambe in Disney’s Animal Kingdom. From the trail, you may come face to face with some of Animal Kingdom’s great apes, the Sliverback Gorillas, in the glass viewing area. After checking out the excellent educational displays, I encourage you to continue on to the suspension bridge. This is where you’ll often find the Alpha Male Gorilla, the leader of the family. For this photo, he was just appearing on to his favorite “pride” rock for the morning. He makes a wonderful example for my Disney Pic of the Week theme on Mammals.
