Awakening To The Love Of Gorillas
This week we bring you an inspiring video most definitely to be enjoyed with the child(ren) in your life!
A gorilla born in captivity at a breeding and rescue centre for endangered animals is reunited 5 years later with two people who helped to raise him, including a teenage girl. Watching this reunion reminds us how deeply we are connected to our fellow primates and the big love these animals are capable of cultivating. They deserve every bit of our kindness and love, so let's do all we can to protect endangered animals and their natural environments.
