A series that looks at some of the world's threatened animal species - the problems of survival for the animals themselves, the reasons behind their decline and the efforts being made to ensure their survival - told through the eyes of the poacher, warden and naturalist. This volume focuses on the gorilla - there are about 400-450 surviving in the Virunga mountains and in Uganda's Impenetrable Forest Reserve, habitats totalling only 285 square miles.

SOS: Gorilla Rescue (SOS)

Heinemann Educational Books - Library Division

(This exciting series looks at the problems facing the world's endangered animals. Through her lively text, conservationist Jill Bailey describes why the animals are threatened and outlines the efforts being made to ensure their survival. Each story is told from the viewpoints of three people who, in very different ways, control the animals'fate. MISSION RHINO is the story of the black rhino and its rapid decline in numbers over the past five years. Joshua is 12 years old and the son of an African hunter. He is excited by the prospect of the rhino hunt, but is sad that such a majestic animal should have to die in order to provide a living for his family. David is a ranger. His job is to track down the people who hunt rhinos illegally. He also relocates endangered rhinos to safer reserves. Kurt is a zoologist. He explains the reasons behind the rhinos' decline, including their loss of habitat, and the problems of relocation. Titles in this series: SAVE THE TIGER, SAVE SNOW LEOPARD, OPERATION ELEPHANT, POLAR BEAR RESCUE, PROJECT PANDA, PROJECT WHALE, MISSION RHINO)
