Rapid transmission of respiratory infections within but not between mountain gorilla groups
Scientific Reports, 2021 Minimizing disease transmission between humans and wild apes and controlling outbreaks in ape populations is vital to both ape conservation and human health, but information on the transmission of real infections in wild populations is rare.

Social groups buffer maternal loss in mountain gorillas
eLife, 2021 Mothers are crucial for mammals’ survival before nutritional independence, but many social mammals reside with their mothers long after. In these species the social adversity caused by maternal loss later in life can dramatically reduce fitness. However,
