The Mountain Gorilla (Gorilla beringei beringei) is a species of large primate native to central Africa. They are identified by their thick fur that sets them apart from the lowland gorillas. As their name suggests, they live in the mountains, preferring the colder climate their thick fur is for. Mountain Gorillas have an upright standing height of 55”-67” (140-170 cm), height on all fours of 35.4”-43.3” (90-110 cm), body length between 37.4”-45.3” (95-115 cm), and an estimated body width of 24”-29.1” (61-74 cm). The typical weight of the Mountain Gorilla is in the range of 154-419 lb (70-190 kg). Mountain Gorillas have lifespans between 35-40 years in the wild and 40-50 years in captivity.
