These are mountain gorillas.

In 1980, there were only 100 gorillas in the world.

Now, there are 1,000.

The gorillas need more space.

They are safe in the national parks in Africa's Virunga Mountains.

Many gorillas live in Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda.

But the park is too small.

Prosper Uwingeli manages the park.

Gorilla groups now fight each other a lot.

Adults and babies die in the fights.

Felix Ndagjimana manages a gorilla fund in Rwanda.

Tourism helped to save mountain gorillas.

But now gorillas aren't afraid of people.

They come into villages to find food.

Gorillas could get sick from humans.

New plans for the park will move some villages away from gorilla areas.

10 percent of money from tourism goes to local communities.

This helps to change people's ideas about gorillas.
