Good News in Conservation



In a piece of great news, the number of lowland gorillas is up. Certainly one of the most majestic of the Great Apes, the Lowland Gorilla was thought to have a population significantly under 100.000. The new information today about the global population of these animals is wonderful, showing their population to be near or over 200.000. While this is not the end of the conservation efforts to save these Gorillas, it certainly is a heartening bit of news.
