The Nigerian Conservation Foundation (NCF) has awarded scholarships to three postgraduate students of the University of Calabar for the conservation of Cross River gorillas.
The acting Director, Technical Programmes, NCF, Memudu Adedayo, at the scholarship award ceremony in Calabar on Thursday, expressed worry at the rate at which gorillas were being gamed.
He said the NCF was in collaboration with Wilder Institute/Calgary Zoo and the Centre for Biodiversity Conservation Research (CBCR) in Ghana.
