Twins for Mafuko: a rare miracle in war-torn Virunga

Mafuko, a 22-year-old mountain gorilla, gave birth to two male twins in Virunga National Park on January 3 — a first for the park since 2020, and fewer than 1% of gorilla births are twins. She had lost twins in 2016; this time trackers are watching closely, and the Bageni family grows to 59.
