spotted a snare in the path of some gorillas and moved to disarm it. But Silverback Yuba "pig-grunted" a warning to him, as if to say, "Stay away, we've got it covered."

790 The Ticket is a sports radio station down here in Miami and each week The Lebatard Show (afternoon show) has a segment with this Animal Expert Ron Magill who works at Zoo Miami.
