Augustin, Kabirizi and BBC
Category: Crises, Mountain Gorillas, Press, Rangers | Date: Jun 13 2007 | By: admin
I was sent the link below last week by friends of mine. This was done by a photographer, Georgina, who came to Congo a couple of months ago. We spent time with her up at Camp Karema with Augustin., right when we were just starting up there. Augustin as you know is the head of the patrol post at Bukima, and has been leading the patrols today and yesterday to identify the individuals of the Kabirizi family. I am sure you have all been following the atrocious events on Paulin’s blog - of the killing of Rubiga and the orphan Ndakasi.
It has been a really hectic few days and I am reeling somewhat. I know Paulin will be updating his blog later on today, but I just wanted to say thank you for all the support I have received over recent days in relation to this brutal slaying. Thank you also for the donations.

The Dian Fossey Gorilla fund sent me an email requesting funds to help send extra anti-poaching patrols to the Virunga Park in order to better protect the gorillas. Is this true?
