Gorillas are fascinating creatures that share 98% of their DNA with humans. They are the largest primates on earth and live in groups called troops. Gorillas are herbivores and eat up to 40 pounds of vegetation per day. They are also incredibly intelligent and have been observed using tools in the wild. Despite their strength and intimidating appearance, gorillas are peaceful animals that rarely engage in violence. Sadly, their populations are threatened by habitat loss and poaching. But with conservation efforts, we can ensure that these amazing animals continue to thrive in the wild.
