Increases in fecal testosterone precede increases in fecal dehydroepiandrosterone in wild male mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei).

Journal of Comparative Physiology. B, Biochemical, Systemic, and Environmental Physiology
Testosterone (T) and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) are two steroids integral to male primate development. For humans, both are high in early infancy (for T, this is known as minipuberty) then rapidly decline.

International journal of primatology
Intergroup encounters are a powerful selective force shaping behaviour. Primates can adjust ranging, activity, and affiliation patterns to mitigate the costs associated with intergroup conflict or enhance intragroup cohesion to facilitate collective ...

Mountain Gorillas: A Shifting Demographic Landscape

, 2013
Large-scale habitat destruction and poaching in the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s had major impacts on the population size and demography of mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei) in Rwanda. In those three decades, the population of the Virunga Volcanoes was halved: groups became unstable, and infanticide was relatively common.

Maternal investment in mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei) [PDF]

, 2019
Investigating maternal investment (Ml) and mother-offspring relationships during the period of infant dependency is critically important to furthering the understanding of female reproductive strategies in primates. Infant primates are completely dependent upon their mothers.

PCDH11 is X/Y homologous in Homo sapiens but not in Gorilla gorilla and Pan troglodytes.

, 2006
Protocadherin X (PCDHX) and Protocadherin Y (PCDHY) are cell-surface adhesion molecules expressed predominantly in brain. The human PCDH11X/Y gene pair is located in the non-pseudoautosomal X-Y homologous region (Xq21.3/Yp11.2). The possible existence of
