Rangers in the Virunga National Park in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo evacuate the bodies of four mountain gorillas found shot in the forest. The gorillas, a highly endangered species, live in an area beset with conflict. A number of militia groups appear to be operating in Virunga. It is not always clear who is attacking the gorillas, which are sometimes eaten as bush-meat, or else simply executed. At least nine were killed during 2007.
