Protecting the Mountain Gorillas of Virunga
Death in the Rugendo Family
Bad news have just come from the Bikenge Patrol Post informing us that the mountain gorilla Bariyanga from the Rugendo Group has been found dead in the forest.
The circumstances of the death are not yet clear, but MGVP veterinarians are performing the post-mortem this morning. I’ll post more info and pictures as soon I get them.
