What's nearby

  • First, I am not sure if the location on the map is correct, I did my best to place it correctly. On a Gorilla trek in Uganda we saw this young gorilla. They did not know the sex yet. We were told we were very fortunate to see him/her. The white around their mouth is from a fruit they eat. A Gorilla trek is fantastic. It helps to pay for their protection and also helps the community. A win win situation. #Wildlife
