to the south, and Lake Kivu and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west. The Nyungwe rainforest is probably the best preserved montane
rainforest in Central Africa. It is located in the watershed between the basin of the river Congo to the west and the basin of the river Nile to
the east. From the east side of the Nyungwe forest comes also one of the branches of the Nile sources

The Virunga Mountains (also known as Mufumbiro[1]) are a chain of volcanoes in East Africa, along the northern border of Rwanda, the Democratic Republic
of the Congo (DRC), and Uganda. The mountain range is a branch of the Albertine Rift Mountains, which border the western branch of theEast African Rift.
They are located between Lake Edward and Lake Kivu. The name "Virunga" is an English version of the Kinyarwanda word ibirunga, which means "volcanoes".
The Virunga Mountains are home of the critically endangered mountain gorilla, listed on the IUCN Red List of Endangered Species due to habitat loss, poaching, disease, and war (Butynski et al. 2003).
The Karisoke Research Center, founded by Dian Fossey to observe gorillas in their native habitat, is located between Mount Karisimbi and Mount Bisoke.
The mountain gorillas (Gorilla Gorilla Berengie), the world’s most endangered ape, is found only in small portions of protected afro Montane forests in
northwest Rwanda, southwest Uganda, and eastern DRC. The mountain gorilla is one of many species unique to these forests. The forests are also home to
many wonderful birds, primates, large mammals, reptiles, insects, plants and also ensure continued water and medicinal plant resources for the local communities.
Today nearly half of the world's 700 remaining mountain gorillas live in the virunga Mountains of central Africa, at the intersection of Uganda,
Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of the Cong.
Hidden high among the forested volcanoes of gorilla tracking in Volcanoes national parkEast Africa, the mountain gorilla was unknown to science until
1902, when two were first encountered by a German explorer and promptly killed. It set the tone for the relationship. For much of the time since, due
to deforestation and poaching, it has seemed that the mountain gorilla was swiftly destined to be lost to the world again. Not long after the species’
greatest champion, the American zoologist Dian Fossey was killed in Rwanda in 1985-there were fewer than 300 of the giant primates left in the wild.
