Why don't they aim their outrage towards the negligence of the Zoo, or the animal-in-captivity culture? No, they rather go for the parents, this time. <br /><br />Funny how things work and funny how they call black people chimps and Gorillas, but the life of a real Gorilla is worth more than the life of a black child. If the child was white, no doubt there would be outcry from these usual obtuse no-life white hypocrites, but not this much hate. It's so blatant.<br /><br />And Field, why are you beating up on the mother too, I sense a little shade. But ya know, the black father's criminal history is now on full blast, shoot, he is fit to be lynched right about now (a black man). So have you had a change of heart as yet, now that daddy is included in the hateration?<br /><br />Anyhoo, I see Ms. Lilacpr (the nice Arab lady pretending to be boricua) is against the parents (of course she is) and she's rooting for Trump as well?

Males mature at an even greater age. Once a female begins to breed, she’ll likely give birth to only one baby every four to six years, and only three or four over her entire lifetime. This low rate of reproduction makes it difficult for gorillas to recover from population declines. Both gorilla species have been decreasing in numbers for decades, and a 2010 United Nations report suggests that they may disappear from large parts of the Congo Basin by the mid-2020s." <br /><br /><i>"So if they don't farm in Africa, it's bad! and if they do farm it's bad because then the gorillas die???

The zoo and Cincinnati are facing lawsuits and criminal investigations over this, and one thing I found interesting came out in the reporting of it: There are regulations in place for the exhibition of primates, one of which states that such enclosures must be constructed to keep the primates safe from the intrusion of other species of animal, such as raccoons and skunks. If an enclosure can't keep out a human child, it most certainly can't keep out a raccoon or a skunk. So they may be in a heap of trouble, for whatever that's worth.<br /> As far as I know TMoT is right about the poaching and the market for the animal parts. Elephants, rhinos and tigers are all being poached to sell to the Chinese, mostly for use in their traditional medicine. Some primates are killed for "bush meat", but mostly it's habitat loss driving their numbers down. At least we don't use them for lab animals any more. Why we need to keep them in zoos is beyond me,<br /><br /> -Doug in Oakland dinthebeasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12941071534250216503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-4885333106068338682016-05-31T17:27:02.641-04:002016-05-31T17:27:02.641-04:00@ MOT: Excuses,excuses! x*D@ MOT: Excuses,excuses! x*DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-83065038318800148912016-05-31T16:14:56.135-04:002016-05-31T16:14:56.135-04:00"So I say let's not compound that by goin...<i>"So I say let's not compound that by going to those countries cutting down their trees, and organizing for profit hunting safaris!

I don't honestly know what happened with that Cecil the Lion flap.

That's true for primates, and for a lot of other animals around the world.<br /><br />However, some animals are threatened because of demand for their body parts, such as elephants being killed for ivory or rhinos for their horns. But the demand is coming from the Eastern world, not the Western one. Specifically, most of the market is in China, which is unable/unwilling to sufficiently crack down on the sellers of banned animal parts. A lot of this is because some animal parts are used in traditional Chinese medicine, and the problem is getting worse as China gets wealthier, because it means more people can afford to buy smuggled commodities.<br /><br />The number of animals going to zoos is tiny.The Ministry of Truthnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-31240028483285121632016-05-31T15:08:46.470-04:002016-05-31T15:08:46.470-04:00The Ministry of Truth said...
