Comparison of arthritis characteristics in lowland Gorilla gorilla and mountain Gorilla beringei
American Journal of Primatology, 2005AbstractGorilla gorilla and the less‐studied G. beringei occupy very different, geographically separate habitats. We studied the occurrence of various forms of arthritis to examine possible nature/nurture causality. The macerated skeletons of 38 G. beringei and 99 G.

Androgens are important mediators of male‐male competition in many primate species. Male gorillas' morphology is consistent with a reproductive strategy that relies heavily on androgen‐dependent traits (e.g., extreme size and muscle mass).

Observations on the teeth of the mountain gorilla (Gorilla gorilla beringei)
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1971AbstractMeasurements of a sample of mountain gorilla (Gorilla gorilla beringei) teeth are presented: when compared with other Gorilla series, the dimensions of the maxillary teeth fall in the upper end of the observed range for the genus. All of the upper teeth except the canine show a greater sex difference in the bucco‐lingual diameter than in the ...

Fracture toughness of mountain gorilla (Gorilla gorilla beringei) food plants [PDF]
American Journal of Primatology, 2004 Mountain gorillas, the largest extant primates, subsist almost entirely on plant matter. Moreover, their diet includes a substantial amount of structural material, such as bark and stems, which other primates tend to avoid.

Examining the dual hormone hypothesis in wild male mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei).
Hormones and BehaviorThe Challenge Hypothesis is an influential framework for understanding how androgens are involved in the promotion of competitive behavior during mating-related challenges and has been tested extensively in studies across scientific disciplines.

Fracture toughness of mountain gorilla (Gorilla gorilla beringei) food plants
American Journal of Primatology, 2004AbstractMountain gorillas, the largest extant primates, subsist almost entirely on plant matter. Moreover, their diet includes a substantial amount of structural material, such as bark and stems, which other primates tend to avoid. Accordingly, the robust masticatory apparatus of gorillas may be adaptive to this presumably tough diet; however ...

Maternal Investment of the Virunga Mountain Gorillas
Ethology, 2007AbstractThe Trivers & Willard hypothesis (TWH) predicts that females with more resources should bias their maternal investment toward offspring of the sex that is most likely to benefit from those additional resources. This paper examines the sex allocation of 61 female mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei) of the Virunga volcanoes, Rwanda ...

Food preferences of wild mountain gorillas
American Journal of Primatology, 2008AbstractDetermining the nutritional and phenolic basis of food preference is important for understanding the nutritional requirements of animals. Preference is a measure of which foods would be consumed by an animal if there was no variation in availability among food items.
