Andre Bauma carries an orphaned gorilla at the Senwekwe Gorilla Orphanage Center, home to the orphaned mountain gorillas of Virunga National Park, Democratic Republic of the Congo. Senkwekwe is the world’s only facility that harbors orphaned gorillas that lost parents during the Congo wars and uprisings, and gives the gorillas a second chance at life. Among the most protected areas of Africa, Virunga, Africa’s first national park, was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1979. Home to active volcanoes and hundreds of endemic species including Eastern Gorilla and Golden Monkey, while living in Goma I spent much time traveling through the lush, remote 3000 square mile area full of grandeur. Virunga made headlines recently when 12 of its park rangers were killed while protecting the safety of people and animals in the park, ever at the mercy of poachers, militias and others looking to take advantage of park resources.
