Cross River Gorilla Project

The Cross River Gorilla Project is a UK based charity whose main aim is to help preserve the critically endangered Cross River Gorilla, particularly those in South West Cameroon which are in danger of becoming isolated and therefore are on the brink of being extinct with less than 300 remaining. Our aims: Conserve and protect the Cross River Gorilla and improve its natural environment by - working with organisations active in the field of conservation, education and development - enabling and enhancing scientific research on the fauna and flora of the rainforest ecosystem; Promote sustainable development by preservation and protection of the environment and prudent use of natural resources; Relieve poverty and improve conditions of life in socially and economically disadvantaged communities; Promote sustainable means of achieving economic growth and regeneration; Raise awareness among the public of the importance of conserving the biodiversity of rainforests in harmony with human activity.
