Last year we reported that the status of mountain gorillas in Africa changed from ‘critically endangered’ to ‘endangered’ on the IUCN Red List- and now this excellent news that there are more of them in the wild than ever before! 👍🏻 🦍 Long may these successes continue.

The outlook for eastern Africa’s mountain gorillas is growing brighter, as a recent census released on Dec. 16 shows that the subspecies’ numbers have risen since 2011. Scientists believe there are now at least 1,063 mountain gorillas living in the wild. Read about it on http://www.mongabay.com. Photo courtesy of @gorilladoctors
