Mountain gorillas interacting

Mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei) interacting. Mountain gorillas are found in cloud forests high on the slopes of the Virunga volcanoes between Rwanda, Uganda and Zaire. The high elevation and rainfall makes this habitat wet and cold. The adults eat many kilograms of vegetation daily (roots, leaves and stems) and can reach over 2 metres in height. A slow reproductive rate has left mountain gorillas vulnerable to habitat destruction, poaching and war, making them highly endangered. Photographed in Virunga National Park, Rwanda

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a heartwarming moment of mountain gorillas interacting in their natural habitat. These magnificent creatures, known as Gorilla beringei beringei, reside high up in the cloud forests on the slopes of the Virunga volcanoes, spanning Rwanda, Uganda, and Zaire. The misty atmosphere created by the high elevation and abundant rainfall lends an ethereal quality to this unique ecosystem. Standing at over 2 meters tall, these gentle giants rely on consuming several kilograms of vegetation daily; roots, leaves, and stems are their primary diet. Unfortunately, due to their slow reproductive rate and various threats such as habitat destruction caused by human activities, poaching incidents for illegal trade purposes or war conflicts in the region have pushed them towards endangerment. Photographed within Rwanda's Virunga National Park – a sanctuary dedicated to preserving biodiversity – this image showcases not only the beauty of nature but also serves as a reminder of our responsibility to protect these incredible species. The intricate details captured here highlight both the biological marvels that exist within our world and emphasize how crucial it is for us to conserve their fragile habitats. Let this photograph serve as a testament to the importance of safeguarding endangered species like mountain gorillas while inspiring awe for Africa's rich fauna diversity found amidst its lush rainforests.
