Is the conservation of endangered species like the gorillas worth the cost of saving them? Gorilla populations in the wild have been decreasing at an alarming rate. Deforestation is the major reason for this. Development as well as illegal hunting have put the gorillas in danger of extinction. Efforts to save the gorillas have included ecotourism but even this has created other problems. People created this problem and, therefore, it will be necessary for them to be a part of the solution if that is what they feel is in their best interest to act. Readers are encouraged to examine their own communities and the relationship between the people and the animals living in those places.
