How long have gorills been around for?

If humans are said to come from monkeys and gorillas, or are
similar species, gorillas are not much older than humans, you would
think. Gorillas have been around not much shorter than mammals in
general have been on this Earth. Gorillas were first medium sized
monkey type creatures, but with many predators bigger than them,
they evolved to be much bigger. Gorillas then grew so big they were
about 4 times bigger than gorillas today, that is where people
think the ideas for King Kong, and Mighty Joe Young came from, but
they were not that big as King Kong.

Why are gorilla endangered?

Us human beings are the evolution. If you do not believe in the
evolution then stop reading... Humans come from gorillas so
gorillas are very protective to there babies. When the first person
on earth was made gorillas raised them. So when animals were to
attack the gorillas babies, the gorilla would fight them off. So
now no one attacks gorillas babies.

Why do gorillas have big butts?

Gorillas have very muscular bodies.A big butt means you either
have a fat or muscular butt.Their butts aren't saggy or jiggly,so
they have muscular butts.A human who does squats frequently
will,get a bigger butt because of the muscle increase.Gorillas
naturally are muscular do to genetics,so that is why their bodies
look they way they are (including butts).
