Gorillas
Seit ich 1988 "Gorillas im Nebel" im Kino sah, gehört meine ganze Liebe dem Schutz und der Erforschung der Berggorillas.
Dafür unterstütze ich Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund so gut ich kann!
Diese Besonderen Tiere dürfen nicht aussterben! Und dazu gehört auch die Hilfe für die Menschen, die in diesen Gegenden Leben. Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund hilft auch da. Und deshalb ist es für mich die Institution, denen ich helfen möchte.

It's a heartwarming story of resilience: two orphaned gorillas have been adopted by members of their group.
In a remarkable and special turn of events, two young gorilla orphans are thriving: Imbaduko and her best friend Mubyeyi are being supported and cared for by other members of their group. Through this tough time, the members of Kureba’s group – led by silverback Ishavu – are banding together and providing lots of help and comfort to one another.

Gorillas are well-known for their complex social dynamics, which can be seen in the enduring relationships that often form between males and females!
Since Valentine’s Day was only last week, we have been thinking a lot about relationships…GORILLA relationships! During our decades of observations, we’ve observed remarkable bonds between males and females. And yep: they are even sweeter than you probably imagined. 💚

It’s been a year of the highest highs and the lowest lows.
What a year. For the Fossey Fund, 2023 has brought some of the greatest growth we’ve seen to date. Whether it was for our staff, gorilla and biodiversity protection, community initiatives, scientific research and student programs, we are so grateful for how much progress and hope we’ve experienced this year. Yet, through all of our positives, it’s also been a very challenging year to keep gorillas safe.

Human families often have their neighbors over to socialize, but do gorilla groups similarly visit with each other?
Our observations offer an emphatic “yes!” Group exchanges can sometimes be tense, but that’s not the case with the Titus and Segasira families. Past family relationships and familiarity among the members help these groups (and others) to have peaceful interactions and a little bit of fun too.
Learn how and why gorilla families get along!
