All the nations need to get together and sort it out! These people shouldn't be able to slaughter gorillas. Why do they need to eat gorilla meat? This should be banned from being sold in the markets, and it should be policed involving large fines and jail sentences. And when they kill the adult gorillas the baby gorilla stays with it's mum and it is totally distraught. The poachers then take the baby gorillas too and try and sell them, but most die because they give up the wll to live.

They're so like humans, and we descended from them, how can the world allow the treatment of animals like this. And like you say they're facing extinction for goodness sakes, what are they gonna do wait til there's none left and then we only have the ones that live in zoos?

I wish I was a multi millionaire cos then I'd plough all my money into trying to save the gorilla and all the other animals who endure torture and poaching. But I'm not and neither are you.

All we can do is make ourselves aware of such issues and don't ignore them, if enough people try and get involved in some way then hopefully we can make a difference.

Please visit the following site www.wspa-international.org (sorry don't know if this link will work you may have to type in your search). This is the international site for the World Society for the Protection of Animals, but they have a UK one and a USA one too. When you're in the site, type 'gorillas' in the search tool and then the click on the 'Baby Gorilla Rescued from Bushmeat Trade' article.

On here you can read about the mountain gorillas plight and articles on Virunga National Park, the bushmeat trade and orphaned baby gorillas.

Hope it doesn't upset you too much, at least they've been able to save this baby gorilla and if you can, please try and donate a small amount, cos that's all we can do right now.

Myself and my dad recently starting paying £3 a month (which is equivalent of a couple of drinks). I'm gonna get the rest of my family to join too.

TOGETHER WE WILL TRY & MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!!!

Lots of love & thanks so much for caring :o)

The only way to prevent the extinction of the other great apes would be to remove human beings from their historical habitats. Good luck with that.

Humans must collectively decide to stop it.
