The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It was named a new species in 1904 by Paul Matschie, a mammalian taxonomist working at the Humboldt University Zoological Museum in Berlin, but its populations were not systematically surveyed until 1987.
- It is the most western and northern form of gorilla, and is restricted to the forested hills and mountains of the Cameroon-Nigeria border region at the headwaters of the Cross River.
- It is separated by about 300 km from the nearest population of western lowland gorillas, and by around 250 km from the gorilla population in the Ebo Forest of Cameroon.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Cross River gorilla article was read about 44,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 75 and blocks with 78: each hit it takes is cut by 31 %.
