when I was little whilst watching the news with my parents I often used to get really confused when 'guerrilla warfare' was ever mentioned as I couldn't understand a) why gorillas were so angry, and b) where they got guns from. therefore, I used to think these wars always went on in jungles with these big king-kongesq gorillas beating up humans.
