The Cross River Gorilla is a subspecies of the western gorilla that is usually
found in montane rainforest between 1,500 and 3,500 meters and in bamboo
forest from about 2,500 to 3,000 meters. It differs from the other subspecies of
gorilla in skull and tooth dimensions. They live on a small area of high-land
forest on the border of Cameroon and Nigeria. They have been classified as a
critically endangered species. (World Wildlife Fund for Nature, s.f.)
Part B
Now, for completing the evidence you need to carry out a little research on the
web to find out the major threats for the Cross River Gorilla. With the
information obtained, write a short paragraph describing why this species is
facing extinction and the consequences of its hypothetical extinction. Make sure
you use conditionals in your text.
It is currently critically endangered as is the Gorilla beringei (Gorilla
beringei) and the Western Lowland Gorilla (Gorilla gorilla gorilla), so the
situation of all gorillas is really disturbing. And not only that, but it is in the
Top 25 most threatened primates in the world, being one of the 7 most
threatened primate species in all of Africa.
Part C
Now, to complete the evidence you need to record a tape in which you describe
the actions you would execute to prevent the Cross River Gorillas extinction.
Use your imagination to picture several scenarios in which you could help.
