The Eastern Gorilla, a species of great ape native to mountainous forests of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda and Uganda, is currently listed as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. It was last assessed in August 2018.
This market will resolve based on the conservation status assigned to the Eastern Gorilla by the IUCN in its next Red List assessment. The target resolution date is August 2028 (10 years after the last assessment). However, resolution might occur earlier or later, depending on when the next assessment takes place.
The possible outcomes align with the official IUCN Red List categories: Least Concern, Near Threatened, Vulnerable, Endangered, Critically Endangered, Extinct in the Wild, Extinct, Data Deficient, Not Evaluated. In addition to these categories, the IUCN sometimes uses the subcategories Critically Endangered (Possibly Extinct in the Wild) and Critically Endangered (Possibly Extinct).
Additional outcomes include:
New Conservation Status: If the IUCN introduces a new category for species assessments.
No Assessment for Taxonomic Reasons: If the IUCN discontinues the assessment of the Eastern Gorilla due to taxonomic changes, such as splitting it into multiple species.
Other: For any other outcome not covered by the categories above.
