To whom it may concern,
Nearly 790 Mountain Gorillas are left in the world and they can only exist in the wild. Mountain Gorillas are one of the four surviving gorilla subspecies. They're found in just two isolated populations, in the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and the Virunga Volcanoes. They live in high altitude montane and bamboo forests. As herbivores, they mainly eat plants. These gorillas are going extinct because of human actions such as: war, habitat loss, and poaching. This species is helpful to the ecosystem because without these large grazers, the natural balance of the food chain would be disrupted. This could negatively affect other wildlife, and potentially the people who depend on that environment.

These animals are a global treasure and must be preserved on behalf of all citizens of this planet.
What a lovely picture of mother and baby gorillas. It would be a shame if they lost their home just because some humans were greedy. It be a shame if the only way we could see these magnificent animals is in picture.
Please save the gorillas for funture generations, your children's children. Thank you.
Gorillas are sentient beings that are closer to humans than you think. Please care for them.
They do not infringe on humans, we infringe on their territory, their livelihoods and their families. We are the ones who need to BACK OFF and let these animals live their lives in peace. We are killing ourselves off just as quickly, so why not take a break!!
save the gorillas!!!
Yes! Save the mountain gorilas
