00:00Nearly invisible, it glides without sound, guided only by heat.
00:05In a sudden strike, it attacks the infant gorilla,
00:09wrapping its powerful body around the small figure and tightening its grip.
00:14The infant's scream shatters the silence.
00:17The mother gorilla lunges forward instantly without hesitation, without fear, for her own life.
00:24She strikes, pulls, and forces the snake back with all her strength
00:29until it finally releases the infant.
00:32A brief but deadly confrontation follows.
00:36Even for a gorilla, a single bite from a Gaboon Viper can be fatal.
00:41The snake retreats, but the danger is not over.
00:46Deeper in the jungle, the mother and infant slow their pace.
00:51Something is wrong.
00:53The gorilla's breathing becomes heavy, her movements unsteady, her eyes unfocused.
00:59She stops, and suddenly collapses to the ground, as if her body no longer obeys her.
01:04The infant does not understand.
01:06The mother clutches her right cheek, and lets out a low cry of pain.
01:12Frightened, but unwilling to leave.
01:18The infant wanders nearby and finds a ripe mango on the ground.
01:23It picks it up and brings it back, the way they always shared food.
01:28But this time, the mother does not respond.
01:32The infant presses close to her, holding on with all its strength.
01:36The jungle around them, the silence.
01:56Hours later, the gorilla regains consciousness.
01:59The pain in her right cheek is unbearable.
02:02When she touches it, she feels a massive swelling.
02:06Her face is badly swollen.
02:09The venom is spreading.
02:10Her breathing is labored.
02:12Her strength fading.
02:14Still, she forces her...
02:18Reaching a fruit tree, she attempts to climb, but collapses to the ground.
02:23Lying there, she barely reacts, letting out weak sounds of pain.
02:27The infant tries to help, pushing and pulling, but nothing works.
02:38Desperate, it climbs the tree alone, retrieves a mango, and brings it back.
02:43Again, there is no response.
02:45The infant begins to scream.
02:48This is no longer just fear.
02:50It is despair.
02:51It does not know what to do.
02:53Is it truly alone now?
03:13In panic, the infant runs through the jungle.
03:17Somewhere, there must be help.
03:20Climbing high into a tree, it spots something unfamiliar in the distance.
03:25A road.
03:26It remembers loud, strange objects moving there before.
03:30With no other choice, it heads in that direction.
03:49The danger returns.
03:51Between the trees comes a familiar rustling sound.
03:55The same Gaboon Viper.
03:57The infant runs.
03:59The snake accelerates.
04:01Looking back, the infant sees it is dangerously close.
04:04One more second, and everything could end.
04:07But the infant bursts onto the road just in time.
04:11The snake stops at the forest's edge.
04:29On the dirt road, the infant notices a vehicle.
04:33What is that up there?
04:34It runs toward it and leaps onto the hood.
04:37The people inside are shocked.
04:40That's a Gaboon Viper.
04:42Very dangerous.
04:44Do not get out of the vehicle.
04:45Until they notice the snake near the tree line and understand what is happening.
04:50Slowly, the Viper retreats back into the jungle.
04:54The immediate danger has passed.
04:57What happened?
04:58What's wrong?
04:59But the most important question remains.
05:02Will the humans find the mother gorilla in time?
05:05Is there still a chance to save her from the venom?
05:09In the jungle, everything depends on time.
05:12And time is running out.
05:25Her heart rate is unstable.
05:27It's very slow.
05:28We need to get her to a veterinary clinic immediately.
05:37This hematoma could have formed after a venomous snake bite.
05:41Possibly a Viper.
06:11It's pretty sick.
06:14Her condition is getting worse, the heart rate is dropping, she's going into cardiac arrest.
06:39Fortunately, the gorilla's heartbeat has stabilized.
06:42At this moment, her condition is no longer life-threatening.
