Congo: Rangers risk lives to guard gorillas as violence spreads

“I was worried about the gorillas and elephants,” Dusabimana John said, a ranger at Virunga National Park, standing amid ammunition discarded by rebels at the park headquarters in Rumangabo. “That's why I came back. I found myself thinking about them every day. In the war gorillas have been killed. If we are not here then no one can stop them being killed.”
