Eastern gorillas are one of the largest primates, with males weighing up to 220 kilograms.
They live in family groups led by a dominant silverback male, who provides protection and leadership.
Eastern gorillas are mostly herbivores, feeding on leaves, fruits, and bamboo shoots.
They share about 98% of their DNA with humans, making them one of our closest living relatives.
Eastern gorillas communicate through a variety of vocalizations, gestures, and facial expressions.
These gorillas are critically endangered due to habitat loss, poaching, and disease transmission from humans.
