Tension has been building up for the Silverback Oumbi all day when he finally had enough and lets his mood out on Ozala drags her from the door back out again.
When Oumbi is looking for little bits of food in the grass, Lope is on tenterhooks and ready to run if he starts to charge. He can feel the tension with his dad. All is good at that point and Oumbi moves into a different direction. Lope gets on with finding some bits of pellets in the grass, but a couple of minutes later, Oumbi suddenly charges at Ozala. As it was feeding time, the most likely reason was him having his eye on some food and Ozala got there before him. He pounces on his mate. Ozala tries to get through the door, but he drags her back out. Lope is quickly there to defend his mother as always. Lope screams at his dad and then runs after him. Ozala follows but looks through the window of what is happening. Shufai, her younger son comes around the corner to see his mum. Lope comes back out again. So does Asante from the other door. She quickly looks for some food, but when she sees that Oumbi is outside again she goes inside. Shufai sits and eats on top of the hut. The silverback still seems on edge and Lope is taking it easy near him trying not to get too close and even walks backwards while keeping an eye on his dad. Ozala found some more food, has a quick glance at Oumbi and walks off.
