Gorillas are the largest primate! 

Gorillas typically move on all fours using a method called knuckle-walking, where they support their weight on their knuckles.

​

Gorillas live in groups called troops or bands, led by a dominant male known as a silverback. 

Gorillas are endangered due to habitat loss, poaching, and disease. Conservation efforts are critical to their survival.

Despite their size and strength, gorillas are generally gentle and shy. They only become aggressive when threatened.

Gorillas are highly intelligent and can use tools, learn sign language, and exhibit complex emotions and social behaviors.
