Help the Gorillas!
Hello, this is IGL. Another of our
projects is to help the gorillas. Cristina is really hyped about this one since
her animal is the gorilla. The gorillas live in Africa .
They are all threatened by many reasons.
First, they are killed by bush meat. Bush
meat is when people kill and eat endangered animals. All these animals are sold
in markets to eat and end up in bellies.
Second, their homes are being chopped
down. Trees are cut down and gorillas don’t have any place to stay.
Third, there is a disease called the Ebola
virus. The virus kills gorillas and their population has decreased over the
days.
And lastly, people poach the gorillas.
Poaching is when people kill animals illegally and trade the animal parts in
black markets and illegal trade.
Many gorillas are dying every day, and
the population has been declining over the years. They also live in small
places of Africa and they all need some help. To
help, you could:
- save paper and recycle
- Don’t poach, buy illegal parts, or buy
bush meat
- and (this probably will be a long
shot) but ask the government to help find a cure for the Ebola Virus or do
something about it
The gorillas need
your help!
