Mountain Gorilla Census in the Bwindi and Sarambwe Ecosystem
REFNo: NS955ES
The Mountain Gorilla Census is a survey that has been periodically conducted to determine the
minimum number of individual habituated and non-habituated mountain gorillas in Virunga
Bwindi Landscape. The census of mountain gorillas also helps us to understand the population
dynamics, including changes in gorilla groups composition and sizes as well as solitary males. In
addition, this survey provides the opportunity to determine levels of human disturbance as well as
the status of other large mammals in the landscape. The results from the census enable us to assess
the success of all conservation efforts aimed at protecting mountain gorillas and its habitats, as
well as to ensure that they receive continue attention from the global conservation community.
