There is nothing in this world as strong as love for parents. It applies not only to humans but also to all living things. Therefore, losing a parent is the most tragic experience for any living being on earth. Wildlife photographer Phil Moore took some sensational photos to prove it.
The pain this gorilla feels from being hunted after losing its mother is too real. As the moment is overwhelming, the poor creature seeks help from park ranger Patrick Karabaranga, whose compassion for the orphaned gorilla is also touching.

As a result of massive deforestation, mountain gorillas have become an endangered species like many other species. In recent years, their numbers have declined. Apart from this, the other human activity that threatens wildlife is hunting.
Several major conservation efforts have been made to restore gorilla populations, and Virunga National Park can be a very positive example of this. About 200 individuals, a quarter of the world's mountain gorilla population, live here. However, there is still much to do!
