What should I do if a gorilla approaches me?

Direct answer

If a gorilla approaches, remain calm, avoid sudden movements, do not attempt to touch the animal, and follow the guidance of your ranger. Habituated gorillas are generally peaceful, and rangers are trained to manage such encounters safely.
