The Virungas, Not Just for Gorillas
Category: Art of Conservation (AoC) | Date: Sep 10 2009 | By: Julie
Volcanoes National Park in the Northern Province of Rwanda holds many treasures - the most famous being the endangered mountain gorilla - but there’s no reason not to cheer for and educate ourselves about the golden monkeys who inhabit the montane forests of the Virungas as well!
Please enjoy the fabulous pictures created by our students during our lessons Animals Living in the Volcanoes National Park.

I had the opportunity recently to visit golden monkeys with volunteer Danielle and photographer Michael Young. Michael took this photo of me.
