Call of the Congo

At first, all you see is the deep green leaves towering over your head. The jungle shudders with cracking wood and bending trees as something massive crashes your way. A silverback barges into the path and gives you a look. It could be Neptuno, a bold but friendly leader, or Jupiter, the strong silent type. Soon, you’re surrounded by western lowland gorillas—one of two groups habituated to quiet, respectful human presence. Young mothers nuzzle babies. Bashful juveniles peek from the foliage while the more outgoing perform aerial acrobatics, glancing often to gauge your appreciation. This is an adventure on foot through primeval landscapes few have seen. The joy of being here is deepened knowing that your visit helps save these magnificent creatures and their rainforest.
