SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus responsible for the current pandemic, could be a 'threat' to great ape populations, including orangutans, chimpanzees, and gorillas, according to research from the journal Nature. The COVID-19 pandemic is a critical situation for humans, our health and our economies. It's also a potentially dire situation for great apes. There is a lot at stake for those in danger of extinction. Scientists have therefore urged governments, conservation practitioners, researchers, tourism professionals, and funding agencies to 'reduce the risk of introducing the virus into these endangered apes'. They recommend that great-ape tourism be suspended and field research reduced. (plantbasednews.org)
