Gorilla's are the largest of the primates, some weighing in at 600 lbs. Gorilla's protect their families by using their sheer size and presence and will often charge and throw vegetation and other sticks and twigs towards the predator that is encroaching upon the gorilla's habitat.

The best defence however, is too stay in a tightfit circle with their family, which allows everyone in the group to be on the lookout for potential predators. Often, if a predator realizes that its location has been exposed, the potential for a stealth and successful attack vanishes, as does the predator.
