The second largest primate is the Eastern gorilla (Gorilla beringei), which includes two subspecies: the Mountain gorilla and the Eastern lowland gorilla. Adult males, known as silverbacks, can weigh between 300 to 485 pounds (135 to 220 kg) and stand about 5 to 6 feet tall when upright. The largest primate is the Western gorilla (Gorilla gorilla). Both species are primarily found in the forests of central Africa and are currently listed as critically endangered due to habitat loss and poaching.
