Dear Editor, 

I am commenting on your story linking COVID-19 and gorillas. What was the point of the story!? I thought it was about COVID-19 news and how it was linked to gorillas, not about climate change. The story was interesting, but not what the title suggested it might be about. I really would suggest a new title, something like “How Climate Change and COVID-19 are Linked.”

 Another spot that I think was weird was the 6th paragraph, where it was said that gorillas are being hunted for their use in cellular phones. Did it mean that poaching gorillas can buy minerals used in cell phones? I am really confused.

Sincerely, Brayden
