What is the eye color of a gorilla?

Well, honey, gorillas typically have brown eyes. They may not have the dazzling array of eye colors like us humans, but those big brown eyes sure do know how to tug at your heartstrings.

She researched gorillas if you are wondering. Humans are the greatest threat to these wonderful animals.


If mountain gorilla became extinct what would happen?

Probaibly, waht might happen is that part of Africa that they live in would become over populated with plants, but not just any plants. Plants that might be diseased and could kill an actual super important animal or mabey a chance that scientist's might discover that some of the plants might also be harmful to humans. Now we can't just walk through the beautiful forest anymore because of these harmful plants. So gorillas do help us in a way that could save some lives of us. Now we're still killing them and that doesn't seem fair but they help us by eating these disease infested plants. So this would pose a problem if they died or so called went extinct.


Why don't lions live in the US?

Lions are native to Africa and some parts of Asia, not the US. They require specific habitats with suitable prey and climate conditions to survive, which are not naturally found in the US. Additionally, lions have not been historically present in the US, so they did not naturally establish populations there.
