Silverback Gorillas: Kings of the Congo | Ultra HD

The Congo River serves as a massive, pulsing artery through the heart of Africa, creating a natural boundary that has shaped evolution for millions of years. This documentary follows the lives of those trapped and protected by its deep, silty waters. In the north, we witness the rigid hierarchy of chimpanzee gangs and the gentle but firm rule of Makumba, a 200kg silverback gorilla protecting his family from leopards and rivals. Across the water to the south, the landscape changes entirely.
