SEASON: 27

EPISODE: 1 - Titus: The Gorilla King

SYNOPSIS

Abandoned as a baby and removed from normal gorilla family life as a youngster no gorilla scientist could have predicted his eventual rise to power. Titus' life story is pieced together here for the first time, based on archive film and the memories of field workers who have studied the mountain gorillas. At 33 years of age, Titus is not just one of the most powerful silverbacks in Rwanda's Virunga Mountains, he is possibly the most remarkable gorilla ever known.
