Dwindling

There are various reasons as to why the mountain gorillas have such a high premium for hunters and poachers. Poachers can easily get into the habitat of these gorillas, trapping them for their selfish gains. These apes are not predators so there is no way they can defend themselves, not to mention they are usually sneak attacks. Therefore, the population of these gorillas has drastically decreased.

Continued Work

The continued work and effort put in by these wildlife parks and conservation sites have helped better the issues faced by these gorillas. They have indeed saved the gorillas against deadly threats such as poachers and deforestation. Gorillas are as we have said, highly respectable apes that deserve a chance in life, a chance to thrive and populate. They are on the verge of being extinct and the main reasons are human-related. Hence it is up to us to help save them and give them a bright future.
