Four rare mountain gorillas, including a pregnant female, have died in Uganda after being hit by lightning, a conservation group says.
The three adult females and a male infant were found in Uganda's Mgahinga National Park with "gross lesions" on their bodies indicating electrocution.
The Greater Virunga Transboundary Collaboration (GVTC) called this a "big loss for the species".
There are just over 1,000 mountain gorillas in existence.
The species is restricted to protected areas in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda and Uganda.
