TO PROTECT GORILLA
African Sanctuary Authorized By Gov
eminent In Congo

In view of the recent discussion in
regard to the. destruction of rare animals
in Africa, it may be of interest to know
the effective plan adopted recently by
the Belgian government for the protec-
ton of gorillas in the Belgian Congo.
The Belgian colonial authorities are
now laying off large tract of territory
in the Kivu district ("the gorilla coun-
try"), and this is to be sanctuary"
for gorillas and for all other wild ami
mails. Within these bounds not only
the fauna but also the flora will be left
undisturbed, Provision has been made
for a sufficient number of wardens to
prevent the destruction OF plants or
trees.
The Sanctuary" will be sort of
Garden of Eden where the animals may
live in peace, amid their natural sur
roundings without fear of man. This
reserve lies in the northeastern part of
the Belgian Congo between Lake Kivu
and Uganda. 1t embraces the three
volcanoes of Mt. Mikeno, Mt. Karis-
simbi and Mt Vissoke, comprising an
area of about $50 square miles of high
and healthy territory, with variety OF
temperature varying from the mild eli
mate of the plains to the colder atmos-
phere of the mountain heights. Here
the gorilla may live in peace, and the
scientists (disarmeD may come and
study the living animal ION his native
heath"
It should be mentioned that the idea
of this great animal sanctuary was first
suggested by Carl Akeley, the American
big game hunter, scientist and African
explorer. On his return to America
from his recent visit to the Belgian
Congo, Mr.. Akeley reported to the Bel
gian government, through the proper
channels, the depleted condition of the
gorilla groups in the Kiyu district, and
urged the foundation of a gorilla sane
tuary. The suggestion was Immediately
taken up and approved by King Albert
and the Belgian colonial officials. The
site of the reservation was selected by
Mr.. AkeIey, and the plan is being car
ried out in accordance with his ideas
