A short film highlighting the plight of Mountain Gorillas in the Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda, has won the top prize in its category at the Wildlife Conservation Film Festival, which takes place in New York next month. It is an issue that was brought to the world’s attention primarily through the pioneering work of conservationist, Dian Fossey, who spent many years living with and documenting these creatures like never before. Narrated by Sir David Attenborough, the film also underlines the increasingly dangerous job of the park wardens who work tirelessly to protect these animals from poaching.
