With the fighting in eastern Congo, I fear our gorillas and wildlife in general are being put at risk. These animals have those forests as their only home yet rebels invade them and launch wars against their governments from forests. I urge the fighters to be mindful of the rightful inhabitants of those forests and spare the animals’ lives. We cannot afford to lose our precious gorillas at the hands of human conflicts they know nothing about. The poachers have done enough damage that we cannot afford having more animals dieing at the hands of political insurgents. Kibuye
