Cross River Gorilla-Rarest Primate on Earth

Characteristics and Habitat.

The Cross river gorilla (Gorilla gorilla diehli) is restricted to a tiny mountainous forest strip along the Nigeria-Cameroon border. These strategic bastions are the Cross River basin, the Afi mountain, the Mbe mountain, and the Takamanda National Park. They are found on altitudes of 1,500-3,500 metres where there are thick rainforest and bamboo groves. It is possible to identify these gorillas using a darker brown-grey fur, cone-shaped heads, and reddish crest. Once they are mature, males are able to grow the common silver patch on their backs, which then causes them to be referred to as silverback.
