current event 2

This article is about two orphaned gorilla being returned home. They were taken away in the first place because there was gorilla killing in 2007. It was during these killings that both the parents of the baby gorillas were killed. They were looked after by caretakers until they decided it was safe enough to return the to Congo National Park. They say that the move was a success and wouldn't have been posible without the Mountain Gorilla Veterinary project staff.
My reaction to this article was joy for the the two baby gorillas. I was happy that so much work was put into their safety and well-being. It also showed me that there are people out there that truly do care about the animals. That gave me a warm and fuzzy feeling inside. I also felt a little worried because I didn't have any idea that people were creating this tremendous of a problem with gorillas. Of course, that worry was taken care of when I read all the about the incredible effort and determination people had for the baby gorillas. In conclusion, the article left me with a good feeling.
