Looking for Miza

In a magical place called the Congo, in the beautiful forests and jungles of Virunga National Park, lives a young female gorilla named Miza. She was just like any other baby gorilla, riding on her mother's back, playing, taking naps. Then, one day, when Miza and her mother were out searching for food, Miza's mother disappeared, leaving her baby alone and frightened. Miza's father, a fierce silverback named Kabirizi and the leader of Virunga's largest family of mountain gorillas, set out to find Miza.

The true story of the mountain gorilla family who rescued one of their own.
