Gorilla Land Mine Loading Screen

▪ Gorillas can be killed by land mines placed along forest paths. i was reading wikipedia about threats to gorilla conservation and i am deeply ashamed to admit that the mental image upon reading that a gorilla could step on a landmine made me laugh this reads like a video game loading screen

A screenshot shows a factual statement about gorillas being killed by land mines, followed by a confession that imagining it made the poster laugh. The joke comes from treating a tragic conservation fact like an absurd video game loading-screen tip, with the gorilla stepping on a mine as dark slapstick.
