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.

We’re celebrating: mountain gorilla twins born in the DR Congo
Twins in mountain gorillas are extremely rare, occurring in only one percent of known births.
We’ve only seen a handful of cases in the gorillas we monitor, protect and study in Rwanda, making this event all the more special. While Mafuko, the mother of the twins, is not among the gorillas we monitor, we are thrilled: every infant born helps the tiny mountain gorilla population expand. “Right now, mountain gorillas are the only great ape on the planet besides humans whose numbers are increasing,” says Dr. Tara Stoinski, President & CEO/Chief Scientific Officer of the Fossey Fund.
