Humans still pose their greatest threat, but a number of organizations have been collaborating with local people in conservation efforts to bring back their numbers. Learn about the programs that are expanding the mountain gorilla's habitat, reducing poaching, and managing tourism, which provides jobs to replace the financial incentive to poach.
