Volcano explosion in Democratic Republic of the Congo.


Tourists seeing the volcano erupting
Nyamulgira is a volcano in the Democratic of the Congo.This volcano started to erupt in November 6 .The lava  reached about 1,000 ft into the air.This eruption so far is not hurting 200  mountain gorillas.There are 8 different types volcanos in this mountain range.Rangers are charging $300 for tourist to come and see the volcano erupting.Also they  have animals such as mountain gorillas, chimpanzees, okapi,forest elephants,and buffalo.An okapi is like an animal that is 1/2zebra and 1/2 horse. This connects to what we learned in Mr. Ellis's presentation when we learned about the silver back gorillas in the border of Rwanda,which are very uncommon and  the erupting volcano could kill the mountain  gorillas and cause them to become exstint.
