Gorilla Murders | National Geographic

you’re the first gorilla that we came
across was lying on her back she’d been
shot and she was obviously pregnant
effective MA we found that it was a
female that had been killed I were to
look at a box of this in Batman P at the
mall we felt it was our own sister who
was dead was a cassette they’re not
lesser get them out
and then within 15 minutes we discovered
the body of sin cake where the syllabic
who was the leader of this guerrilla
family he was lying on his back with his
hand over his heart with a number of
bullet wounds in his chest
link out the back everybody was stunned
these people they had lost their King
this on Cupid and war nobody could talk
to anyone else any bets on the public
battling a big load
they took leaves and bound the mouths
and the wounds it was almost as if these
Rangers were attempting to preserved
what remained of the spirit of the
animals

then they were lifted up onto the
shoulders of men and then carried for
miles until they reached the Rangers
base
It was as if the best of Africa the most
dignity that they could assemble in the
face of tragedy was present in this
procession
[Music]
in all six guerillas had been killed
that day the assailants unknown
[Music]
it was clear this was no ordinary
wildlife crime these animals were not
butchered for food and they weren’t
killed for trophies this was not about
poaching this is about the assassination
of a family to make a statement this was
an execution
