What is the gestational period of a mountain gorilla?

The Mountain Gorilla has a normal gestation period of eight and a half months. It may extend to nine months, but it is rare. Once born the baby gorilla will spend every moment with it's mother for the first few months of it's life. This is an important bonding period for both. During the first stage the mother will constantly hold the baby, after a couple of months, the baby will hold on to the mother's back, riding with her everywhere she goes. Finally after about 4 to5 months, the baby will start learning to walk and by six months the baby will be experimenting with eating plant food. For more details, please see the sites listed below.
