The growly/throat-clearing sound I’m making with the silverback Eastern mountain gorilla behind me is actually a form of communication. It translates to “Hello. I come in peace. I am a friend. All is good.” This is the Susa family, the largest gorilla family in Volcanoes National Park, and they’re foraging at the edge of the forest. This movement tells us that these gorillas need even more protected habitat compared to recent decades. That’s actually a good sign in many ways because the population has improved over the last 20 years meaning more gorillas = more wild habitat necessary. Rwanda’s wildlife development board is already discussing ways to increase gorilla habitat in cooperation with local communities living adjacent to the forest 🦍🌍. @visitrwanda_now @virunganationalpark @kwita.izina
