What Do Gorillas Eat?

What gorillas eat depends on what their habitat provides and on the time of the year. Mountain gorillas mainly feed on green plant parts, whereas lowland gorillas eat a lot of fruit. However, in the dry season only a few juicy fruits are available and so the animals have to eat more seeds and tree bark instead. Usually, fruits grow on trees; gorillas of all ages climb these trees to harvest them. Although western gorillas eat a higher percentage of fruit than of leaves, stems, pith and shoots, they still eat markedly less fruit than do chimpanzees and orangutans.The food range of the western gorillas is very broad: they eat about 200 plant species. They particularly like plants belonging to the ginger and arrowroot families. In contrast, the mountain gorillas in the Virunga Volcanoes eat only 38 different plant species, mainly Galium, thistles, celery and nettles. >

I feel that due to our height and brain mass and teeth and weight we are closer to gorillas than chimps and clearly they are the more intelligent. So our siet needs to be somewhere in between.

I reccon most people eat 50% white stuff, white flour, sugar, rice , potatos, bread, pasta ect and then 25% meat including bacon sausages cold meats as many nitrates as they can get. 10% dairy, milk, eggs and cheese. 10% vegetables and 5% fruit.

To drink 50% coffee, 20% soda and 15% water and 15% alcohol. Thats how most people that i have watched eat.
