National Geographic’s new television channel WILD launches at the end of this month, and we’re profiling another series getting ready to hit the scene with Mystery Gorillas. From the release,

Emerging Explorer Mireya Mayor immerses herself in the secret lives of wild gorillas, learning about new behaviors and group dynamics, such as the role of female choice and limited tool use. Travel to the forests of northern Congo, where record numbers of western lowland gorillas live unseen in the dense foliage. Mireya’s quest to see them up close gives her the chance to get to know the intimate details of one family — a big male named Kingo and his clan of females and young.

We’ve got 7 gorgeous photos from the new series in our gallery. Check them out here.
