PART I
My favorite
zoo animal is a Gorilla. The Gorilla lives in the rain forest near
the Equator. The natural habitat of this animal is in the mountain
forests in Uganda and Ruwanda.
Did you know
that this animal is the largest of the all the apes!! They are shy,
and very friendly animals. In parts of the world people hunt Gorilla's.
Only Gorilla's living in captivity eat meat. Human-beings are Gorilla's
enimies.
This animal
lives in groups and the groups stay in Africa, which is near the Equator.
The groups range from 2 Gorilla's to 30.
The Gorilla
leads a very peaceful life.
PART II
My favorite
zoo animal is the Gorilla. The male Gorilla grows to be 6feet tall
and weighs up to 600pounds. The female Gorilla grows up to be 5feet
tall and weighs up to 200puonds!
Gorilla's live
in the wild only in the Zaire River Basin. The Gorilla is very sociable,
with there diet mainly being fruits, leaves, and jucy streams. A
healthy Gorilla can live to be 30 years old.
Some interesting
facts about Gorilla's are that they only have one baby every four years,
also they have hands hands like humans.
Gorilla's live
in groups and when they get angry the roar and pound on their chest.
Probably the most important fact is that they arean endangered species
with fewer than 450 left in the wild.
