Last Stand of the Silverback King

Summary A BBC team films two troops, a few dozen each, of the rare mountain gorillas, of whom less then 800 are estimated to remain in the wild. On a Rwandese volcano, silver-back king Titus, most of whose troop left him three years ago, is challenged by his ripe firstborn son Rano. In Uganda, a king's still immature challenger fails to dethrone him but actually does his bidding in repulsing a third challenger from outside their troop.
