Gorilla Free Screensaver Description

Gorillas, the largest of the living primates, are ground-dwelling omnivores that inhabit the forests of Africa. Gorillas are divided into two species and (still under debate as of 2007) either four or five subspecies. Its DNA is 97%�98% identical to that of a human, and are the next closest living relatives to humans after the two chimpanzee species. Gorillas move around by knuckle-walking. Adult males range in height from 165-175 cm (5 ft 5 in � 5 ft 9 in), and in weight from 140�200 kg (310�440 lb). Adult females are often half the size of a silverback, averaging about 140 cm (4 ft 7 in) tall and 100 kg (220 lb). Occasionally, a silverback of over 183 cm (6 ft) and 225 kg (500 lb) has been recorded in the wild. However, obese gorillas in captivity have reached a weight of 270 kg (600 lb). Gorillas have a facial structure which is described as mandibular prognathism, that is, their mandible protrudes farther out than the maxilla. Gestation is 8� months. There are typically 3 to 4 years between births. Infants stay with their mothers for 3�4 years. Females mature at 10�12 years (earlier in captivity); males at 11�13 years. Lifespan is between 30�50 years. The Philadelphia Zoo s Massa set the longevity record of 54 years at the time of his death. Gorillas are omnivores, eating fruits, leaves, shoots, and sometimes insects which make up only 1�2% of their diet. Almost all gorillas, like humans, have individual fingerprints
