The biggest threat to mountain gorillas is NOT global warming or toxic chemicals, it is war. The main area they live in is undergoing a civil war. People do not have the luxury to save the gorillas, but are fighting for their lives. They did have quite a good ecotourism thing going, but with the fighting it is not longer feasible.
I also have very big conflicts with people always blaming 'industry'. These industries have such high restrictions put on them here that they then move overseas and are able to pollute at a much higher rate. I see people build houses all around a mill and then try and shut that mill down. There was a reason the house you bought was so cheap... duh. Ugh....![]()
