AudioVideo Saturday, 27 January, 2001, 16:50 GMT Gorillas do well despite war Gorilla numbers have risen by more than 10% in a decade in Virunga By environment correspondent Alex Kirby Despite the trauma and disturbance of a savage war, Africa's mountain gorillas are slowly improving their prospects of survival. Conservationists say one gorilla population, which contains more than half the world total for the species, has increased its numbers in the last decade. Monitoring shows the Virunga gorillas, on the borders of Uganda, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, have increased by at least 11% since 1989. There are estimated to be fewer than 650 mountain gorillas left in the wild. The species is highly endangered, not just because of the years of fighting in the area, but also because of heavy pressure on the forests where the gorillas live. But with the Virunga gorillas now numbering 355 animals, up from 320 in 1989, conservation groups are cautiously encouraged. Hope despite conflict And they believe that even that figure is likely to prove an underestimate.

AudioVideo Thursday, 8 March, 2001, 16:43 GMT Keeping Cameroon's primates from the pot Children were unaware they were eating endangered species From Francis Ngwa Niba in Yaounde A British wildlife charity in Cameroon has set up an educational programme aimed at encouraging schoolchildren to stop eating the meat of endangered species. These primates are friends and eating them is like eating a friend Biology teacher The charity - Cameroon Wildlife Aid Fund - began work at Yaounde Mvogbetsi Zoo four years ago as an initiative to look after primates orphaned as a result of the bushmeat trade. Thousands of children have benefited so far amid signs that the programme is becoming a huge success. I followed a group of 20 students from the Promethe Evening School on a typical trip to the zoo. "We make them understand that these primates are friends and eating them is like eating a friend," says biology teacher Banseka Eriw, who organised the visit. Before setting off students are questioned about their views on the bushmeat trade.

The Foraging Behavior Enrichment of Primates in Taipei Zoo Ci Wen Yang and Chien-Jen Yang Abstract This paper describes the foraging environmental enrichment programs designed to stimulate natural behavior of gorillas, chimpanzees and fat-tailed lemurs in Taipei Zoo. These experiments have resulted in the extension of their feeding time and increase their social interaction. Introduction Environment enrichment is an important and adopted zoo management tool for the captive primates in modern zoos. In order to promote animal conservation education, we invited Dr Hunthius, the conservation and science director of the American Zoo Association, with his group of animal behavior researchers to conduct a workshop ‘The application of behavior study in animal management’ in 1992. A series of programs were initiated to enrich the animal behavior. With the operation of some key elements within the captive environment, including foraging and management design, the natural behavior of the animals was stimulated to reduce the occurrence of abnormal behavior. This report is the study results of primates. The Foraging Behavior Enrichment of Gorillas, Chimpanzee and Fat-tailed Dwarf Lemurs

From a grassy hilltop he looked west across a sweeping view of abandoned farmland and forest. Turning to the east, he faced the park boundary, an abrupt line of forest that rose in misty waves to the summits of the Virunga volcanoes, home to some of the world's last mountain gorillas. "Is anyone here?" he shouted. "It's Mushenzi! Answer me!" It was the end of November 1996. Mushenzi, director of national parks in Congo's province of North Kivu, had come looking for his rangers. A few weeks before, civil war had swept through this region, in the eastern part of the country. Congo (then called Zaire) was awash in refugees, frightened citizens and armed fighters from a variety of factions. Thousands had been killed, most of them civilians. In the first days, movement was impossible and Mushenzi was trapped in the provincial capital of Goma. It was still dangerous in the end of November, but Mushenzi was driven by a sense of missionto hold together Africa's oldest national park while his nation disintegrated.

TERRA.WIRE Animal rights group slam decision to keep gorillas in South Africa JOHANNESBURG (AFP) Apr 20, 2004 An international animal rights group on Tuesday slammed a decision to shelter in South Africa four young gorillas from Malaysia, saying the primates should go back to Cameroon where they were captured. The International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) joined a chorus of other animal rights organisations who demanded the return of the animals, dubbed the "Taiping Four" to a wildlife centre in the west African country. The gorillas arrived in South Africa last week from the Taiping Zoo in Malaysia after a journey lasting more than two years following their initial capture in Cameroon, where their parents were slaughtered for "bush-meat" (including meat from gorillas and monkeys.) Smuggled out of Nigeria on false documentation, they ended up in Kuala Lumpur where the irregularity was discovered, said IFAW spokeswoman Christina Pretorius. A Pretoria zoo filed an application to host the primates and was successful, receiving the animals on April 14. Animal welfare organisations said the gorillas should be returned to their country of origin in accordance with the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) regulations.

These three species share many simularities, however each species contains differentialities to each other. What Exactly Does a Gorilla Look Like? Most Gorillas have black leathery skin on their face, palms and chest. The colouring of the Gorilla varies from; black, blue-black brown-grey fur.
