Introduction

Gorillas have long interested people. When the large apes were discovered by Europeans, it sent a frenzy into the scientific community. Never before had such large apes been seen, at least not by them. They were not so unusual to the societies already living in the same general area.

Westerners believed that the gorilla was a violent beast, meat-eating and foul-tempered. They believed this because of the gorilla's teeth, and because most of them only saw dead gorillas, rather than seeing them living in their natural habitat.

The myths and false assumptions about gorillas would not be disproved for a long time, but now we know the gorilla is not only not particularly violent, but also intelligent and capable of being very gentle. These great animals are an amazing part of the many creatures that make up the world.
