The poachers-illegal hunters-had finally found a buyer for their stolen goods. A meeting was
36  ，and when the buyer asked to see the goods，they brought out a small duffel bag and un-zipped it. Inside was a   37   one-year-old baby gorilla. The poachers had likely killed the little female`s parents and  38  her in the forests of the Democratic Republic of the Congo，in Africa. Then they took her across the border into Rwanda，  39   to sell her as a pet.
But the buyer didn`t bring   40  ；he brought the police. The Rwandan authorities  41 
the young gorilla to the nearby headquarters of the Mountain Gorilla Veterinary Project. The vets (兽医) there realized that she had not been given   42   food or water，but they were much more worried about something else. "Baby gorillas simply don`t  43  without their mother`s constant body contact，" says vet Chris Whittier. If they didn`t quickly establish a   44   relationship with the baby gorilla，which her caretakers named Dunia，she   45   not survive.
Dunia needed contact，but she resisted   46  at first，shying away from people who reached for her. Three caretakers worked in shifts，taking   47  holding her，carrying her around on their backs，and cradling her while she slept.   48   she became stronger，a month after she was res-cued her  49   revealed the psychological stress she carried inside-much of her hair fell out. That was a delayed   50  to the combined traumatic experiences of losing her parents and being kept-with a poor diet-by the poachers.
After six months of loving care that included around-the-clock attention，a good diet，and a
51  home at the project`s headquarters，Dunia was looking and acting like a   52 ，happy young gorilla should. "Dunia is sort of a shy show-off，" says Whittier. "Her   53  is growing and  she`s becoming more independent，but when she is   54 ，the first thing she does is run back to her   55 ，just like she would to her mother."
