Field Notes

In September, the Aerial Unit flew 241 hours and covered 32,985 kilometres.

A very rare appearance from Makoua. 🦍💚 Makoua is notoriously elusive, so moments like this are incredibly special. In fact, this is only the second time in the last two years that he has been captured on one of our camera traps. He calmly approaches, takes a seat and surveys the forest around him before getting up and disappearing back into the wild once more. 🌿 For a gorilla we so rarely get t
