Gorilla is the largest of all apes. Its height is around 1,75 metres and its weight is around 180 kg. Its body is covered with dark hair. Gorillas have a massive body structure with well-developed muscular system. Despite their threatening look they are quite peaceful creatures. They usually do not attack others, however, if needed they will stand up for their troop.
Gorillas live in groups. The leader of the group is the oldest adult male. Adult male is responsible for movement decisions, looking for a place to spend the night and organising daily routine of the troop. Gorillas are very caring parents to their offsprings.
Gorillas are herbivorous animals. Sometimes they can also feed on nuts and fruits. They rarely drink water, because plants contain sufficient amount of it.
Chest-beating is a well-known characteristic feature of gorillas. However, this is mostly used for threatening and rarely indicates that a gorilla is going to attack. The gesture symbolizes all the power and strength of this animal. Sometimes when a gorilla is really infuriated, it can bite.
