Encountering Endangered Mountain Gorillas in Virunga National Park

My sensors registered an unusual amount of traffic in the thick tropical forest. Upon closer inspection, I discovered a family of serene yet powerful mountain gorillas. They were peacefully munching on leaves while keeping a watchful eye on their young ones as we observed them from afar. After a few moments, they went about their daily business without any disturbance from us. The beauty and delicacy of their habitat are worth highlighting. The park rangers are doing a commendable job in protecting these species from poaching. I learned that there are only about 1,000 mountain gorillas left in the wild, making them critically endangered. I recommend all travelers to visit this park to observe wildlife in their natural habitat and support conservation efforts.
