LloydChristmas do you really compare Gorillas to pigs and cows. We dont eat Gorillas, and cows and pigs arnt endangered. Think about what you say before you say it, because that comment makes you sound stupid.

@jayriggzy There is a vast difference between an act of instinct, and an act by a person who can make an informed decision that is affected by moral upbringing.

RIP - Dian Fossey, and all the gorillas that were killed by pouchers

Fucking poachers... they need to be executed. Poaching has led to hundreds of extinctions.. it's fucking disgusting ... human beings are cruel and disgusting .

@ChameleonHead You and I think, and feel the same way.

@SoonerWClinton u decided that gorilla's are more important than pigs and cows simply because u like eating meat.stupid hypocrite.do u know how many species go extinct every day?more than 100

[ChameleonHead]

Its such a frustrating thing, that animals are threatened with extinction because of such idiotic reasons as how people fuck without education thus increasing a population of consuming dumbasses and they think eating parts of their bodies will give them a hard on. fuck, sometimes I really hate our speices.

@doobiesmoke15 Don't blame the dog, he was doing what he was trained to do and what came naturally. While it goes to show the ferocity with which Digit defended his family and makes me proud of him and love him even more, it's not fair to call the dog horrible. It's just sad the poor thing was made to do such horrible work.

@MesblacriesDock Why should humans be chosen first? Do the gorillas not have just as much right to live peaceful, safe lives? They're not emotionless rocks to be bulldozed off the landscape for the convenience of humans, they're living, feeling, intelligent beings who love and fight for their families, just as Digit died to do. Are you saying it's ok to drive them to extinction to protect the human population? Cohabitation is possible, but poaching needs to stop, education needs to happen.

@MesblacriesDock If they can't afford to feed their families, they shouldn't start a family. If you are in a position where the land you live can not sustain the population it's irresponsible to continue growing the population. Yes, as an American not suffering third world conditions I understand that's easy for me to say...but at the age of 28, I still have no plans on reproducing myself. so I stand by what I say and am no hypocrite for it.
