Changes in movement patterns in relation to sun conditions and spatial scales in wild western gorillas by B. Robira, S. Benhamou, E. Obeki Bayanga, T. Breuer, S. Masi

“…This suggests that gorillas navigate their home range by relying on visual place recognition but do not use the sun azimuth as a compass. Like humans, who rely heavily on vision to navigate, gorillas should benefit from better lighting to help them identify landmarks as they move through shady forests. …”
