Tokyo Gorilla

Fri, September 18, 2009, by Muza-chan

2009 is the year of gorilla at the Ueno Zoological Garden. For me, a good opportunity for an extensive photo session with one of the most expressive animals. It was one of the best moments I had this year in Tokyo, two years ago when I visited the Zoo I was able just to catch a glimpse of them, sleeping under the shade. This year, I managed to catch the feeding time… and here’s what I saw…

Ueno Zoo Gorilla

This gorilla is from the Western Lowland subspecies (Gorilla gorilla gorilla), the most commonly found in the zoological gardens. The Ueno Zoo provides for the Gorilla a great habitat, a big place called the “Gorilla Woods".

2009 este anul gorilei la grădina zoologică din Ueno. Un prilej pentru mine de a face o lungă şedinţă foto cu unul dintre cele mai expresive animale. A fost unul dintre cele mai fericite momente de anul acesta din Tokyo, pentru că acum doi ani, când am vizitat grădina nu am putut decât să le zăresc… erau ascuse la umbră. Anul aceasta am prins ora de masă… şi iată ce a ieşit…

Ueno Zoo Gorilla

Această gorilă face parte din subspecia Western Lowland (Gorilla gorilla gorilla), cea mai des întâlnită în grădinile zoologice. La grădina zoologică din Ueno gorilele sunt ţinute într-un spaţiu mare, bine amenajat, numit “Pădurea gorilelor".
