CORLLAS NANAGE THER OHN LAND §,000 Inhabit 7w5quare-[ Mile Area in Africa Under Belgian Protectorate. gorilla, alone among animals, .n & country. A 700-square-mile area in the he ©f Africa constitutes Gorilla Land—es mentially & gorilla nation under a Bel- g::nmeflonu Within this country, which outsiders are cxcluded rigid- ly unless they are on scientific expedi- tions which meet th» approval of ihe Belgian government, the great apes who generally are recognized as man’s clos- est relatives on earth, are free {o man- age their own affairs and are given probably greater protection than is ac- eorded any aboriginal tribe. They are fmmune from -hunters and collectors. The administration of Gorilla Land is vested in an international committee of 18 distinguished scientists, among whom are Dr. John C. Merriam, president of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, and Dr, ‘Henry Fairfield Osborn of the American Museum of Natural History. They are known as the Commission du Parc National Albert—as th> gorilla eountry is known. Their duty is to sdminister the country under the Bel- 7ian government in the interests of the torillas. The right to kill or capture one of the great apes would be ac- norded only under the most excep- ‘jomal circumstances—probably not at Race Growing Scarcer. The mountainous Albert National ark is one of the two places on earth -7here the gorilla still is found. The ther area is a mountainous stretch of he British Cameroon region of West \frica. Here, although there is no spe- -1al sdministrative provision for goril- 18, the animals are protected by the y08t stringent laws and it is doubtful ““hether the British government would ~llow the killing or capture of one of 11em under any circumstances. This is one of the reasons why such ‘renuous_efforts are being made to ; reserve the life of N'gl, the little goril- at the National Zoologeal Park. The hief reason, however, is the lovable srsonality of the little ape himself. ‘e came from a corner of the Cameroon wglon, Spanish Guines, into which srilla families occasionally wander 3d where the protective laws have * sen applied very rigidly since his cap- I rre.
