Project Noah Nature School
The names and photos on the members of the group can be see on these links. https://c2.staticflickr.com/4/3786/13098... http://www.bwindiforestnationalpark.com/... I think this might be Buzinza, an adult female.
The Rushegura group is located in tropical montane rainforest in the Buhoma part of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, SW Uganda.
The mountain gorilla (Gorilla beringei beringei) is one of the two subspecies of the eastern gorilla. Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is inhabited by a population of about 340 individual mountain gorillas, known as the Bwindi population, which makes up almost half of all the mountain gorillas in the world. The mountain gorilla is highly social, and lives in relatively stable, cohesive groups held together by long-term bonds between adult males and females. The fur of the mountain gorilla, often thicker and longer than that of other gorilla species, enables them to live in the colder temperatures. As of November 2012, the estimated total number of mountain gorillas is around 880.
