The Last Orangutans ( article questions)

#3: I think that the author introduced the plight of the orangutans before mentioning Gladikas because they wanted to tell the reader how the life of the orangutans were before Gladikas stepped in and after.

#4: The details that show that Gladika is motivated by more than a scientific curiosity about orangutans is when the author mentions that she was inspired by a famous paleontologist named Louis Leakey to spend her entire life among nonhuman primates.

#5: Over in the west of America and long ago Native Americans would kill buffaloes and use parts of their bodies as resources. They would use use their skin to make coats and clothing, their meat as food and bone as tools. Sometime in the mid-1800's there was sayings of the buffalo going into extinction which mean the buffalo would be no more. Right now in the year 2010 the buffalo is an endangered species. Because of the carelessness of killing the buffaloes there was a massive decrease in it's population. The point of this paragraph was to explain not to abuse animals or things. Appreciate what you have because when it's gone a part of your life will be incomplete. Animals just as humans lives a life. If you would'nt want to hurt a family member or friend then why hurt animals. It is the same thing as killing a human being.
