Absolutely amazing. Congratulations to Penny and to all the people who have worked very hard in Koko's signing language skills and the preservation of the gorilas.

"Gorillas could go extinct by the year 2010." Nope

Humans were always humans

we were never primates.. evolution has so many flaws... i believe in adaptation but evolution is flawed to fuckness.

@videogal247 - we should be so lucky. They don't put our feet into stately homes as umbrella holders. They're not responsible for making a bunch of their fellow species extinct.

We'd need to get pretty ambitious over the next 20 years for gorillas to be 'pretty much human'.

egskilekki 200 western low land gorillas left in the world, over 6 billion humans. Think about the maths.

[fizzgig1]

there are 90,000 low land gorillas left and only about 390 mountain gorillas left; just saw it on a david attenborough doco; both types are big time endangered.

if we worked with people to give them a less environmentally-damaging form of income then the world would be a step closer to becoming sustainable. however with a good proportion of the world living in poverty, it's their only option to turn towards environmental destruction just so they can survive. for every dead gorilla you find there may be a family who don't go hungry this week, for every dead shark a poor fisherman who doesn't lose his house. not saying it's ok, just think about the humans
