Bwindi Gorillas Increasingly Threatened By Human Conflict

VBS.tv just put up another excellent travel video series focusing on the gorilla population in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, where the borders of Uganda, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo meet.

Since the video was produced, there has been heightened violence in the area, but the video gives a good sense of how the gorillas are threatened and what the forest is like.

i know we are focused on the human tragedy but i hope that as soon as they are safe we will focus on our closet interviews.

These animals are wonderful, gentle creatures who just want to live in harmony in nature and should not not have to be butchered by monsters of war. If these people want to kill their own, that's fine - just leave the gorillas out of it.

Violence only breeds violence.

I pray for the safety of these animals and hope that they remain in peace within their natural habitats.
