Description

Gorillas constitute the eponymous genus Gorilla, the largest extant genus of primate's by size. They are ground-dwelling, predominantly herbivorous ape's that inhabit the forests of central Africa. The DNA of gorillas is highly similar to that of a human, from 95–99% depending on what is counted, and they are the next closest living relatives to humans after the bonobo and common chimpanzee.
