Question

For this discussion, I would like for you to further explore the details surrounding the endangerment of any of the lesser and greater apes (i.e. gibbons, siamangs, orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees, or bonobos). Use outside resources like the internet (you don't need peer reviewed journal articles, but are welcome to use them!) to find information regarding the specific reasons why these primates are endangered. You are required to share at least two of your resources (i.e. website links are fine) in your original post and you are encouraged to share your resources with other students in your comments on their posts. In order to get full credit for this discussion, also discuss what conservation steps are being taken to address these issues, and if you think these efforts will be successful. Why or why not?
