Gorillas

Gorilla monitoring first took place between 2001 and 2008. It was recently restarted in 2013 by a dedicated gorilla research assistant, who identifies every group entering the baï, as well as individuals. This research has shown a currently unidentified skin condition is prevalent in many groups, in some severe cases causing deep lesions.
