EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library captures a heartwarming moment between a mountain gorilla and her infant in the lush rainforest of Central Africa. The young, wet duo stands amidst the dense foliage, seeking shelter from the gentle rainfall that envelops their habitat. The maternal instincts of this female gorilla are beautifully displayed as she lovingly cradles and cares for her precious baby. The image showcases the incredible biodiversity found in African rainforests, where these endangered species thrive. It highlights the importance of conservation efforts to protect these magnificent creatures and their delicate ecosystems. Set against the backdrop of towering trees and mist-covered mountains, this photograph transports us to Rwanda's Virunga National Park. Located at high elevations within the Virunga Mountains, it is home to an array of unique wildlife species including this subspecies known as Gorilla beringei beringei. With its rich detail and vibrant colors, this print serves as a reminder of both the beauty and fragility of our natural world. It invites viewers to appreciate not only the remarkable biology and behavior exhibited by mountain gorillas but also underscores our shared responsibility in preserving their future for generations to come.
