Gorillas

Gorillas are starting to die out due to poachers,snares,and having their natural habitats destroyed. One type of gorilla, the mountain gorilla only has a population of 900 gorillas in the whole world. One death of a mountain gorilla makes a bigger impact on the whole population than you would think.Many gorillas die each because of injuries,respiratory problems,infections,fights with other gorillas,falling out of trees,or getting caught in a snare.Luckily there are animal doctors out there who are trying to save as many gorillas as they can.Gorillas are more than 98% identical to humans genetically, which means their susceptible to many sicknesses,or diseases using pathogens.

Why do frogs pee on people?
Frogs pee on people when their picked up as a defense mechanism.When a big human picks up this tiny frog it scares them because of how high they are going up off the ground.Frogs are tiny and they don't have anything but their urine to scare of a predator. Frog urine can cause warts,and that is why when you pick up a frog you normally get in trouble.Plus they carry diseases,so no one should pick up a frog.
