ENDANGERED SPECIES
Mountain Gorilla Baby
Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda
“Several groups of gorillas in Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park have been habituated to having small groups of people spend an hour a day with them.”
“Known to science for only about 100 years, the species has been affected by loss of habitat to agriculture, deforestation, poaching, and human diseases, and it is now one of the most endangered animals on the planet. Only about 600 to 700 mountain gorillas remain living in the wild in Rwanda, Uganda, and the Congo.”
Our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising every time we fall.
~ Confucius
