EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, a majestic adult female Mountain Gorilla takes shelter from the pouring rain alongside her adorable youngling. Nestled on a bed of fallen wood in Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda, these incredible creatures showcase their remarkable parenting skills even during rainfall. As the rain showers down upon them, this rare subspecies of African gorillas remains calm and composed. The mother's protective instincts kick in as she ensures her baby is safe and dry within their cozy nest. It's a heartwarming sight that reminds us of the strong bond between parent and child in the animal kingdom. The lush green forest surrounding them provides an enchanting backdrop for this intimate moment captured by photographer Bernd Rohrschneider. These gentle giants find solace amidst nature's elements while residing in one of Africa's most breathtaking landscapes - the Virunga Mountains. This image serves as a reminder of how precious and endangered these magnificent creatures are. With only around 1,000 individuals left in existence due to habitat loss and poaching threats, it becomes even more crucial to protect their natural habitats like Volcanoes National Park. So next time you encounter rainfall outside your window, think about these amazing mountain gorillas who know how to make rainy days special with their exceptional nesting skills!
