I believe they are called families.
Gorillas live in family groups
Gorillas are social animals that live in groups called troops. A troop typically consists of a dominant male, several females, and their offspring. The group works together to protect their territory, find food, and raise their young.
Gorillas are primarily herbivores and do not hunt for food. They forage for plants, fruits, and occasionally insects. They are not known to hunt in groups.
In groups called troops .
yes because they live in families or groups.
the adjective is SMALL
Not exactly. Gorillas are apes but not all apes are gorillas. Apes are defined as primates in one of the following groups. The lesser apes (aka gibbons) belong to the family Hylobatidae. The great apes (aka gorillas, orangutans, chimps and humans) belong to the family Hominidae.
No. Gorillas will travel in groups usually. Especially if they are silver-backs. They also live in middle of rain forest most commonly sleeping and eating.
"Current knowledge on the social organization and behavior of gorillas is dominated by results from research on mountain gorillas though there are some data for eastern and western lowland gorillas. The minimum group size for all subspecies is two individuals (usually a silverback and a female), except for males ranging alone, while maximum group size varies slightly for each subspecies (Yamagiwa et al. 2003). The maximum group size for mountain gorillas can exceed 20 individuals, while eastern and western lowland gorillas generally are not found in groups larger than 17 to 20 individuals and western lowland gorilla groups are always observed in groups smaller than 20 individuals (Yamagiwa et al. 2003)."
because the need more apes so they dont get hurt as much and to protect

Social skills are one of gorillas' most important survival skills. They alert each other when there is danger, work together to find food and are more intimidating to predators while in groups.
