Gorillas often travel in "bands", this is made up of 6-7 gorillas. There is only one male, called the silverback, and the
rest is made up of females and their young. They each sleep in their own nests, except the babies
sleep with their mother until they can feed and build a nest themselves, usually around 3 years of age.
Gorillas are the closets animals to humans there are. They have 5 fingers and toes like us and they even has
thumbs on their hands and feet!
