          Mountain Gorillas!

I think the gorillas in the video were really nice, and I liked when the woman grunted to make the gorillas know she is coming. I think that gorillas are nice, and cute! And also, gorillas can be up to 6ft tall! (Really tall aren’t they!) And their weight can be 300 to 425 pounds! And their lifespan can be up to 53 years in captivity. You can find Mountain Gorillas in dense forest, and rain forests. And they’re always vegetarian! In addition, few animals have sparked imagination of man as much as gorilla. I think gorillas have very low population, I think it is about 300!  Their predators are leopards, crocodiles, and “HUMANS”! Can you believe humans are really bad to gorillas to be their predators? I think so!

  1. Salma I thought that it is really cool that the women knew to grunt i mean how did she know to do that it is amazing and how did the gorillas know that she was human. I had no idea that gorillas could be six foot tall that is amazing the only other animal that i can think of that is taller than six feet tall is the geriaf. why would we kill the gorillas it is just cruel.

  2. It is a very big problem today on how humans negatively affect mountain gorillas, such as we can give them a lot of different diseases, and are moving them out of there natural habitats. The mountain gorillas only have four places that you can find them Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Mgahinga Gorilla National Park, Volcanoes National Park, and Virunga National Park. Last there is an association called African Wildlife Foundation which is spreading awareness on how we negatively affect mountain gorillas.
