Fracture toughness of mountain gorilla (Gorilla gorilla beringei) food plants.
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.

This paper analyzes a certain class of combinatorial board games that includes Ayo, Tchoukaillon and Modular N–queen. We refine the existing results by providing simple and intuitive proofs using abstract combinatorics, and also reveal some interesting game positions.
متن کاملEnvironmental Influences on Mountain Gorilla Time Budgets
Data on the time budgets of mountain gorillas (Gorilla gorilla beringei) were collected during field studies in the Virunga Volcanoes region of Rwanda and Zaire. Focal sampling was used to determine the proportion of time that individuals of different agehex classes spent in several mutually exclusive activity states. The gorillas spent the majority of daylight hours feeding; most of the rest o...
متن کاملPossible tool use in a mountain gorilla.

This is one of only a few documented cases of possible tool use in wild gorillas, although tool use behavior is commonly observed in captive gor...
