I'm looking for an image of a gorilla beating its chest and roaring.

I already tried shutterstock, istockphoto, bigstockphoto, etc. but I cant find the right one.

Something like this:

but I want to buy the photo and freely use it without duration of use.

If any of you have an image of a gorilla like the example or a link for an image let me know.

Thanks!

There is a guy coming occasionally to this forum who owns a gorilla suit.
I'm sure he'll be more than happy taking a selfportrait beating his chest.

Most microstock photographers don't get paid enough to contemplate taking that kind of shot.

My first thought too.
In the wild, your guide would have you well away if anything like that was going to happen.
Micros are iffy about zoos.
You may have to consider:
A vector or raster drawing
A bloke in a gorilla suit (as above)
A specialist macro agency, but you might not find it RF.
