Virunga National Park Rangers Rescue a Poached Baby Gorilla

In a well-planned undercover operation, a team of Virunga National Park rangers in the Democratic Republic of Congo, lead by ranger Christian Shamavu, recovered a poached baby Grauer's gorilla by posing as buyers for the infant gorilla and arresting three poachers. The small team of five rangers found the baby through a tip from a contact in the Lubero territory and the town of Kayna. It is unknown what forest the gorilla came from.
