To begin with today
Hello everyone. 1) Can I ask you all to close your eyes
for a minute and picture this: the young ones are playing
climbing, rolling in the mud and having fun, while the
mothers relax close by, keeping an eye on them. Where
are you? At a playground? No! You're on a mountain in
Africa watching a group of amazing mountain gorillas
Mountain gorillas are wonderful animals, but they could
become extinct if we are not careful. There are only about
700 of them left! 2)
!
I'd like to tell you a few
things about these gentle giants. 3)
that
they were only discovered in 1902? They live in the thick
mountain rainforests of Africa, so they are quite well-hidden
from the world. Mountain gorillas look scary, but really they are very gentle creatures who live together
in families and are mostly vegetarian. The family has got a big, male leader, called a silverback. The
silverback looks after his family and will only become aggressive when he thinks his family is in danger
.
He's just a good dad!
4)
mountain gorillas might be in danger. Well, there's hunting for one thing. Hunters kill
the gorillas for food. They also chop off body parts to sell as souvenirs. That's disgusting!5)
the gorillas are in danger is that their homes are disappearing. People are chopping down the trees
in the rainforests for land, firewood and houses.
Today, people are working hard to protect mountain gorillas, their forests and their way of life in the
mountains. But why is this work so important? 6)
with something to think about. Dian
Fossey, the famous scientist who studied mountain gorillas, once said: "The man who kills the
animals today, is the man who kills the people who get in his way tomorrow."
