K guys cant keep doing this...It affects me Gorillys. Scientists have exposed great risks of emerging diseases from human and wildlife interactions especially in the highly degraded woodland areas. Big Gorilly Hugs

And yet, "we" continue to take more and more of their habitat away from them. So sad. Thanks Gorilly Girl.

If we just left them alone like we were supposed to, and stopped taking away their habitats, this wouldn't even be an issue.

Noted. Scientists?

Yes, Nancy. Science is the business of taking things out of context so as to misunderstand them better, and scientists are people who do that for a living.

(With notable exceptions, of course.)

Yes Mark agree avoid where possible unnecessary contact with the human species. How long do you think it will take the powers that be to work out the problem may well be depleting the forests etc etc!!! Maybe they need another few hundred mill to conduct a study to reach the correct conclusions duh.
