Tansy Aspinall was just a toddler when she first met a pair of African lowland Gorilla’s in her father’s care at Howletts Wild Animal Park.
After they were fully grown, the pair of Gorillas were re-introduced into the wild forest of Gabon, West Africa.
Now 12 years later Tansy joins her father Damian Aspinall as they search for Djalta and Bimms, the Gorillas she once knew as a child.
The incredible video below shows Tansy and Damian’s journey into the wild to search for their long lost friends.
See footage of Tansy as a child as she recalls some of her first memories with the Gorillas.
Will they find Djalta and Bimms? If so, will the Gorillas accept a Tansy after all these years?
