Uganda - Mountain Gorilla
UGANDA
Mountain Gorilla.
Sent by Nagawa from Jinja in Uganda. Thanks for the beautiful stamps of Carlos Valderrama.
This is from Wikipedia : The Mountain Gorilla (Gorilla beringei beringei) is one of the two subspecies of the Eastern Gorilla. There are two populations. One is found in the Virunga volcanic mountains of Central Africa, within three national parks: Mgahinga, in south-west Uganda; Volcanoes, in north-west Rwanda; and Virunga in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The other is found in Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Some primatologists say that the Bwindi population in Uganda may be a separate subspecies, though no description has been finished.
