Adventure in the wild safaris on Instagram: "Rare Birth of Twins - In Democratic Republic of Congo, a pair of twin mountain gorillas were born in Virunga National Park. On 3rd January 2026, trackers in Virunga National Park discovered the birth of twins within the Bageni Family, one of the habituated gorilla families in the park. The twins were born to adult female Mafuko, and the two newborns are male. #gorillatrekking #volcanoesnationalpark #birthoftwins #twingorillas #gorillas"

When mountain gorilla families cross paths it’s usually a show of dominance among the Silverbacks. This was the interaction between the Mukiza and Bitukura gorilla family earlier today in the Ruhija sector of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. 🎥: by our field team | Uganda Wildlife Authority
