Gorilla Protection

With the Year of the Gorilla now well underway, you will be pleased to hear that we are about to start supporting a variety of important gorilla projects in collaboraiton with GRASP and the CMS.

The gorilla sound blog is about the western lowland gorillas in Mondika which is located on the border between the Republic of Congo and Central African Republic, in the Djeke triangle. The blog is about the daily life of a group of western gorillas called Kingo & C, their ecology, sociality and vocal system. Salma and her team will share the life and problems of forest living with you.

Meet Mekome the Jealous one 

The Gorillasound blog aims to inspire interest in this magnificent species and support the research of their behavior while participating to the conservation efforts of the site where the research will take place. Western gorillas are the ape species we know less about, even if there are present in all the Zoos of our big cites. Habituating western gorillas to our presence and study their behavior in their natural habitat takes years and few places have succeeded until now. Sites like Mondika need to be supported by all of us! Please help Salma and her team to make a difference. Visit Gorillasound and leave a comment, tell your friends and make a donation!
