#GreatApeMoment: “Where is my forest?” by Ian Johnson, Natural History Museum, Finalist 2014


"As Ian Johnson explored the Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda, the silverback Mountain gorilla leapt over the stone wall without warning and just stood there. It and its family are effectively stranded in the park, which is ringed by farmland. Here, at the foot of Mount Sabinyo, Rwanda, fields of potato and pyrethrum have replaced forest. Wild gorilla numbers in Africa are dwindling." http://ift.tt/1tfbjPC
