I don't own the rights to anything you see or hear on this video.

There is a very educational and informative website many will find of interest:
www.gorillacd.org
gorillacd.org

These people work in a region of the world that has very terrible situations happening all the time, to include mass genocide, environmental destruction, greed issues, wide scale corruption, and dangerous forces all over.

The above given website is a wealth of information about the amazing Mountain Gorillas, events happening inside Virunga National Park, and those who care about them.

The name of the song is "Ain't No Reason"
The artist is Brett Dennen

Please let me know who to give any photo credit to. I found the images on the internet and, specifically, Flicker.

I am noting the Fair Use Act, however, if the Youtube account gorillacd contacts me to remove this video for any reason, I'll do that out of respect.

This video is not just about the critically endangered Mountain Gorillas in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), or the Virunga National Park the rangers work unceasingly to protect, but to bring awareness specifically to the rangers. That region is full of unspeakable suffering, for decades. Through it all, there is a very special group of courageous and dedicated people that many are not aware of.

This is an educational and awareness video. Again, please visit the above referenced website to learn so much more.

  • "Black market for baby gorillas growing"---

    Sting ops in the DRC nabs poachers, fourth time this year. Wed, Oct 12 2011

    Wild baby gorillas increasingly at risk from poachers, say authorities at Virunga National Park in the DR Congo..."It's very likely the mother and other gorillas were killed, because it's very difficult to take a baby gorilla from its family," says the rescuer of Shamavu the gorilla, Tuesday'. "The poachers will never admit to this since that would bring stiffer penalties.

  • I would like to note that I was very pleased to see how many external websites have began linking to it . It is my hopes the education, support, understanding, and awareness continue to grow.

  • Great video! Thanks for making it. They should put this video on their website.

  • It's my hope that the rangers have full authority to shoot to kill poachers. I can't think of a better deterrent.
