                     Gorillas in danger

     The gorillas are omnivorous mammals that live in the forest of Africa Central.

It animal is the most similar to the human, after two species of chimpanzees, because they have the same blood type and each gorilla has its own fingerprint to identify it.

     This kind of animal eats fruits like banana, mango etc. Leave, buds of the ground and some insects.

Physically, the gorilla is too long with big hands and large fingers, its fur is usually black, but there are some of them with white fur. Male gorillas weigh about 140-200 km and their height is from 1.65 to 1.75 meters.

     

     The gorilla is in danger for three important reasons:

• ·         Their main problem is the poaching
• ·         The hunters kill them because gorilla’s skin and meat are too expensive
• ·         The hunter destroy their natural habitat

     Finally, to protect these extraordinary animals were created different types of nature reserves, such as, National Park “Ntokou- Ppikounda” and people are trying to create some laws that prohibit hunting of gorilla.
