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.
