The Mountain Gorilla Project

The Mountain Gorilla Project is a conservation initiative dedicated to protecting and preserving the endangered mountain gorilla populations in their natural habitats, primarily in Central Africa's volcanic mountains. It involves habitat preservation, anti-poaching efforts, research, and community engagement to ensure the gorillas' survival. By monitoring their health, behavior, and numbers, the project aims to reduce threats like habitat loss and illegal hunting. The initiative also promotes eco-tourism and local community involvement, fostering sustainable coexistence. Overall, it seeks to safeguard these critically endangered primates for future generations while supporting the surrounding ecosystems.
