Gorillas live in the tropical forests of equatorial Africa. The gorilla habitat and the distribution range for the two species, the eastern and western gorillas, is divided by almost 900km (560miles)
Very little is known about this elusive sub-species of gorilla, except that their numbers are small and their highly fragmented environment could threaten their future.
The eastern lowland gorilla, also known as Grauer's gorilla is a Critically Endangered subspecies of eastern gorilla which are found only in the mountainous forests of eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Habitat loss, deforestation, poaching, civil war, and disease are all real threats to mountain gorillas. The mountain gorilla is the most endangered subspecies of gorilla.
Two baby mountain gorillas have recently been born in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in Uganda. There are only 1,069 mountain gorillas left in the wild. So every single baby makes a massive difference. Will you help rangers watch over these precious new arrivals until they grow to have babies of their own?
