The world’s smallest population of mountain gorillas live in Virunga Mountains, a range of extinct volcanoes that border the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda and Uganda. Since the discovery of the mountain gorilla subspecies in 1902, its population has endured years of war, hunting, habitat destruction and disease—threats so severe that it was once thought the species might be extinct. What might have been a bleak outlook for the subspecies just a couple of decades ago has brightened in recent years due to conservation efforts.
