Central Africa's Orphan Gorillas talking about the gorilla protection program I learned from National Geographic. It is written in first person to spice things up.

Central Africa's Orphan Gorillas The Orphans were dependent on the project protection des Gorillas (PPG.) This 12 yr. old project searches for orphaned gorillas rescues and raise them in a healthy group environment to be released into one of two sanctuaries Congo and Gabon. Although there real origins are unsure most were probably "bush-meat orphans": Their mothers killed by hunters who butcher and smoke the meat in jungle camps to be shipped to cities and villages …

…are stay with the Tchimpounga orphans would be transferred to the Lesio Louna Sanctuary in the Lefini Reserve. There, Despina a Greek woman cares for them. She was not schooled as a field biologist, and her work does not follow strict rules for scientific research. She describes gorilla social ladder in anthropomorphic terms. John Aspinall underwrites the PPG program; late last year he finalized plans to translocate two gorillas to Mphassa, fulfilling a lifelong dream.
