There she witnessed firsthand the plight of the diminishing number of gorillas in the region shortly before the recent accounts. Welcomed by the Rwandan government Portman and animal icon Jack Hanna spotlight the gorillas who so closely resemble humans in an international effort to bring attention to their dire crisis.
