Objective
For many years the people of The Republic of Congo have lived in economic hardness. They wished to improve their economic status and thought it a good idea to develope an EcoTour that would bring in resources for their country, and the same time not destroy the natural beauty they possess. The Congo jungle has been a home to the Silverback Gorilla's as long as the residents of Congo can remember. In 2001, this is why the people decided to create their EcoTour around a stay with the native peoples who will take their visitors on multiple tours in different parts of the jungle observing Silverback Gorillas. By having this tour it will help protect the Gorillas for observation only and hopefully soon enough stop all poachers from hunting down Silverback gorillas. It will also bring new economic oppurtunities to the people helping them develope.
