Question

keeping rare species of animals in captivity is a double edged sword" Explain this from a gorilla in a guest room

Answer 1

A Gorilla in the Guestroom is a description of some animals in the author Gerald Durrell’s zoo in Jersey. One of these animals is a little gorilla known as N’Pongo.                         


The story describes the adventures that the author had when he had to keep the gorilla in his guestroom for a few days in his guestroom because the latter’s cage was not yet ready. By the time, the cage was ready and the gorilla was moved into it, he had turned the guestroom upside down.A Gorilla in the Guestroom is a humorous tale of what happened when the author Gerald Durrell had to house a gorilla called N’Pongo in his guest room for a few days during his tenure as a zookeeper. The author had to do this because the gorilla’s cage in the zoo was not yet ready by the time it arrived.

The sad expression and grave courteous manner of the gorilla helped it easily win the hearts of the author’s wife and mother.  The family was only happy to accommodate N’Pongo in the guest room as they expected it to be quite a sober animal. However, by the time N’Pongo had to be taken to the cage, he had created enough ruckus and the room seemed as if it had been turned upside down.
