Hand Raising Gorillas, Then Setting Them Free - Damian Aspinall

Damian Aspinall believes that zoos have a higher responsibility to the animals that they house than just the function of educating the public. Aspinall, whose father created a wildlife sanctuary outside of their home in the English countryside, is leading a large reintroduction program that has put 80 gorillas back into the wild. He explains his reintroduction methods, as well as shares a story about his strong bond with one male gorilla, who, after five years of living in the jungle, embraced Aspinall, who had been searching for him, and introduced him to his new wild family.
