"You might have recently seen caretakers Mathieu and Patrick's amazing selfie with female orphaned gorillas Ndakazi and Ndeze inside the Senkwekwe center at Virunga National Park. We've received dozens of messages about the photo. YES, it's real! Those gorilla gals are always acting cheeky so this was the perfect shot of their true personalities! Also, it's no surprise to see these girls on their two feet either—most primates are comfortable walking upright (bipedalism) for short bursts of time.
Guys, if you shared our gorilla selfie post, please share our Earth Day posts as well! Conserving Virunga's amazing wildlife is a constant challenge for the Park and our work wouldn't be possible without your support."
