"On the second day of his 3-day trek around Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Park in search of mountain gorillas, nature photographer, conservationist, and biotech entrepreneur John King couldn’t believe his luck.
Despite paying a fee of $600 a day with no guarantee of actually seeing the wild primates, King and his group of guides had spotted not one, but two mountain gorilla troops. Their second encounter had been a resting troop of gorillas called the Rusheguras, which King watched and photographed from a safe distance for about an hour.
