Have you ever wanted to see a REALLY BIG Gorilla? If so, get ready because we found the largest one in the Congo!
On our first Brave Mission, host Mark Vins is teaming up with the Rangers of Virunga National Park to search for some of the last remaining Mountain Gorillas in the Congo - including the largest Silverback in the region. While trekking for these gigantic primates, Mark and his elite camera team must evade poachers and rogue militias in the DRC, while learning how to protect its critically endangered wildlife from extinction. The mission to save Africa’s oldest national park will transport viewers to the front-lines of conservation and invite them to participate in the goal to rewild our planet – which is now more critical than ever.
From Executive Producer’s Leonardo DiCaprio and Mark Vins, comes this thrilling mission to prove that conservation IS action!

The fact that gorillas have endured so much hatred and hardships from humans and still allow you and your touring group to get so close without harming you is a testament to why they should be saved.
-
"If I die, I die. If the gorillas are safe, okay." This line is so touching to me. I salute you all.
-
I pray these animals never go extinct
-
The tolerance they have for humans is quite incredible
-
“if I die I die if the gorillas are safe, okay.” Absolute legend
-
That Ranger who put the safety of the gorillas before his own life on a daily basis is a truely remarkable person. He may not be rich or well known like the celebrities that dominate social media but he is doing much more important work.
-
God bless the rangers that protect these noble beasts. You are real heroes living your life for a great cause. Thank you.
-
Why’s the main silverback so handsome 🤣… so much calm confidence and natural intimidation
-
"if i die, i die. if the gorillas are safe, okay!" i love this man already. he says that without even skipping a beat, he's truly passionate about those animals. we need more kind souls like him
-
bless the man that said he’d die for these gorillas. what a noble person
-
12:21 “he’s a Handsome Silverback and he knows it” Gorilla- strikes pose🦍
-
It absolutely blows my mind how intelligent these creatures are and how similar they are to us!
-
He just looks so wise. Gorillas are one of the most majestic, interesting animals EVER
-
“You can see him thinking, observing us. Look at the way they’re bonding, caring for each other, nurturing one another; and their curiosity of us is undeniable. It’s like looking in a mirror.”
-
I’m learning so much about gorillas 🦍 lately not only are they beautiful but seem to be mostly peaceful creatures. It’s us humans that have drove them to be Leary and cautious of us for good reason
-
Seeing that baby gorilla was something I never knew I needed in life. The very stout and serious face of a gorilla on a tiny little gorilla body is absolutely adorable looking lol
-
No lip puffing, no smiling, and the silverback even yawned while he knew they were there. He probably knows the rangers and trusts them. Beautiful.
-
Man looking in those gorilla's eyes breaks my heart tbh thinking about how they fight to survive against human race and still sits with peace and comfort when facing you guys.. Amazing man
-
From 400 to over 1000, fantastic work rangers! I hope they can continue their efforts, and well done on the huge fundraiser!
