Teeth!
Western Lowland Gorilla has 32 teeth just
like a modern day human!
Gorillas have very strong teeth to eat the plants that are hard and crunchy.
Adult male gorillas grow strong canines!

Diet?
A lot of animals like to eat meat so they are carnivores but Western Lowland Gorillas only eat vegetables like celery and carrots and apples

HabitatThe Western Lowland Gorilla lives in the African Tropics Secondary Forests. They enjoy it there because of the low and shady floor they live and sleep on.
