Caption/Description

Midway on a trek across 2,000 miles of central Africa, ecologist J. Michael Fay encounters choking vegetation, impassable swamps, and rumors that the virulent Ebola virus has struck gorillas in Gabon. Fay’s team plunges ahead into an isolated and uncharted wildness. A gorilla in Congo’s Odzala National Park. Here, apes are abundant, but in neighboring Gabon, they are almost extinct. J. Michael Fay, of the Wildlife Conservation Society.
