Which one among the following is home to the endangered mountain gorillas in Africa ?

The endangered mountain gorilla (Gorilla beringei beringei) is endemic to two specific locations in Central Africa: the Virunga Mountains and the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. The Virunga Mountains, also known as the Virunga Massif, is a volcanic range that straddles the borders of Rwanda, Uganda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. This region includes several national parks, such as Virunga National Park (DRC), Volcanoes National Park (Rwanda), and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park (Uganda), which provide the high-altitude montane cloud forest habitat necessary for their survival. While Mount Kenya and Mount Kilimanjaro are significant African volcanic peaks, they are not habitats for mountain gorillas [1]. The Ngorongoro Crater is a conservation area in Tanzania known for diverse wildlife but does not host this specific subspecies.
