2017 Wildlife Photo Contest

Mountain Gorilla, Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda, Rwanda
Gorilla in the Mist

Species: Mountain Gorilla | Location: Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda, Rwanda

After trekking through the jungles of Rwanda for several hours we came across a family of 13 gorillas. Spending an hour with these gentle creatures was absolutely incredible. Watching just how human like their mannerisms were, blew us away. As the rain started to fall, we watched several of them huddle up into balls, just like you would see a young child do.
