"Forlorn"
By Steven Davis

Oscar Jonesy, the male silverback gorilla at the San Francisco Zoo. His expression seems so sad. I wonder where his mind is.

"Says it all. Animals should not spend their lives in captivity. Excellent shot and title. Love how you captured Oscar looking directly at you. Heartbreakingly beautiful. "

"To everyone, thanks. Captivity does suck, but in the wild gorillas are also being hunted to extinction because of illegal poaching, so while zoos may not be the ideal situation, it's a necessary one to preserve species."
