Silverback Oumbi is getting a bit frustrated as none of the females wants to know. Oumbi has his eye on Ozala. Ozala is quite wary of him and keeps him in her view. She comes closer to the silverback which surprised me as she normally avoids him totally. She keeps her eyes on him and just in front of him, she slowly changes her direction. Oumbi sits down for now while his boys in the back are being their usual rascals. Ozala comes back and just stands in front of him, looking at him. Another quick glance in his direction and then she moves on. That's when Oumbi charges through the room. He stands by the door contemplating his next move. Biddy is in the back on the wood wool, watching the two. He charges again. Ozala quickly moves out of his way. Ozala seems to actually want his attention as she moves close to him, but I don't think she wanted to get run over and that's exactly what Oumbi does. He charges again and literally charges over Ozala. Poor Ozala falls backwards and I'm hoping she hasn't hit her head on that log. That's when everything kicks off. The boys start to chase Oumbi and scream. Biddy screams as well. As always it's over in seconds. Asante makes a quick appearance in the back. The silverback sits down and everybody gets on with what they were doing before. Ozala seems fine, so I think she was lucky not to have hit her head.
