    Is there a place in the DRC that gives bonobo tours, or a spot that rehabs bonobos that I could visit?

    Kennedy - you have a great Congo page. It's nice to read about your country from you. I'm suprised to know that its $250 to go into the park and be with the gorillas for only 1 hour!!

    I thought the route Kinshasa - Kisangani on the Congo River was closed, because of the civil unrests. BTW great Page, once I will settle down in Congo. GRTZ
