why should we protect gorillas

We need to protect gorillas because they’re endangered. They are endangered because of poaching and habitat destruction. We should protect them because “Without these large-scale grazers eating lots of vegetation, the natural balance in the food chain would be disrupted,” according to https://www.wwf.org.uk/wildlife/mountain-gorillas. We could also protect them so that we are also helping wildlife. It is good to help but we also need to know why.

They are also hunted for things. One thing poachers are poaching for is gorillas. Wild African gorillas are hunted down and slaughtered for their meat with devastating results.

This is bad to do things like this to them. If we can help preserve, then it might stop. According to https://www.wwf.org.uk/wildlife/mountain-gorillas. “Gorillas, like all wild animals, play an important role in their environment.” That can happen, we better get helping. But how?
