packed with fascinating facts, nice color photos
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is an interesting book about the daily lives of gorillas. There are many color photos of gorillas in a variety of situations. I love that book not only contains true facts, but myths & folklore about gorillas from around the world. The book starts out describing gorillas' features & characteristics. This includes information on senses & movements as well. It then does a great job of explaining the differences in primate groups & gorilla classifications. Group activities, communication & interaction with other animals are also covered as well as information on there food cycle, nest building & habitat. You even get to glimpse into the life of a gorilla from birth to death. At the end there is an engaging discussion on conservation efforts including addresses where you can write for more information. The glossary, suggested readings & a section listing 20 fascinating facts are nice bonuses.
