Monkey magic
Z
oologist and wildlife presenter
Charlotte Uhlenbroek got up close
and personal with our nearest living
relatives – apes and monkeys – in BBC1’s
nature documentary series Cousins.
Charlotte travelled around the globe for
the show, taking a hot spring bath with
macaques in Japan and watching gangs of
female lemurs slug it out in Madagascar.
But her most memorable encounter was
with a male mountain gorilla in Rwanda, which
booted her in the back while she was filming.
‘Being kicked in the back by a gorilla is a
privilege,’ she explained. ‘It was his way of
letting me know who’s the boss.’
Monkeying around:
