Gorilla Sighting II - The Sequel

Here is NC Zoo's Dr. Rich Bergl's telling of the Cross River gorilla sighting story I shared from Terry Shiels.

"Even though we only got brief glimpses of the silverback, it was my best sighting of a Cross River gorilla in 10 years of research on this species. The fact that they are so hard to see emphasizes the level of threat they are under. The gorillas really avoid people because most of the humans they meet in the forest are hunters."
