Although their biotope has shrunk to a relatively small area around the Great lakes, conditions are quite different in Rwanda's volcanic mountain jungle from Uganda's bamboo-grown hills forest. Life is hard because of dwindling territory, poaching, human infectious diseases and family dramas.

The young need five years of intensive parenting, sometimes falling to the father after the mother is lost. Written by KGF Vissers See less
