The beast from the mountains
A lot of people who have encountered mountain gorillas have trouble describing it, some people even say that they are magical and extraordinary creatures. Which is true. Gorillas weigh up to two hundred pounds and very strong but also incredibly gentle. There are only about 50-100,000 gorillas in the world and only about 700 mountain gorillas all living in central Africa. They are almost extinct due to the forest being cut down. The mountain gorillas were first discovered in 1902 and someone made a book on the amazing creatures.
