Discussion

  • males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} and E_Hp only

Facts

  • Mountain gorillas are restricted to the mountain rainforest and subalpine forest of eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), southwestern Uganda and Rwanda. Grauer's gorilla occur across the forests of the Albertine Rift in eastern DRC. (Ref: Wiki)
