Washington, November 24 (ANI): A new study by the Wildlife Conservation Society has determined that western lowland gorillas living in a large swamp in the Republic of Congo are becoming increasingly threatened by growing humans activity in the region. Yeboah, a 12-year-old Western lowland gorilla, will be moved to his new home in Regent's Park from La Boissiere Du Dore zoo in France, near Nantes, this year. Because the violence has been so persistent and the research areas so vulnerable, scientists don't really know how badly Eastern Lowland Gorilla populations have been affected. |
