Dian Fossey spent several years studying and habituating gorillas in the wild. She gradually gained their trust by spending long periods of time following their movements and observing their behavior without causing any harm or disturbance. This process of habituation allowed Fossey to study the gorillas up close and gather valuable data on their social structure and daily activities.
Jane Goodall and Dian Fossey never worked together directly, as their research on primates took place in different locations and timeframes. Goodall began her work with chimpanzees in Gombe Stream National Park, Tanzania, in 1960, while Fossey started her research on mountain gorillas in Rwanda in 1967. Although they corresponded and shared mutual respect for each other's work, their paths did not cross in a collaborative setting.

for writing a book about animals (gorilla's) and for studying the gorilla's alsoBecause she was the first person to conduct a long term research program on gorillas. She also destroyed myths saying that they were beasts and highly opposed poaching.
One solution to save the endangered gorillas is to have more people paroling their habitat to stop poachers. Support organizations that donate to saving gorillas or make a donation to an organization directly.
Apes like gorillas, chimpanzees, orangutans, and bonobos care for their young for nearly as long as humans do. Baby gorillas stay with their mothers for years. The mother teaches her baby how to find food, how to make a nest to sleep in, and how to get along with other gorillas. Gorillas are herbivores, and do not eat any meat at all.
Gorillas don't hibernate at all, ever.
they have very long arms which hang, but short legs....

3 healthy, strong male gorillas defending their territory could kill a bear, but it will take a long and a hard time to do so. Depending on the species of the bear, a bear would severly injure the three gorillas.
