Gorillas

In the past, people thought that gorillas were monsters. They even thought that gorillas ate people. But they don't eat people, unless you make them mad.(And then a few years later, they killed a mountain gorilla in South America.) I learned that gorillas can be five times tougher than humans. Gorillas are powerful because their hands ,feet,and body is husky. Did you know that monkeys are primates?Chimpanzees, and even people are primates. But gorillas are the biggest primates of all. They only hurt you because some mom gorillas want you to stay away from their baby. Gorillas are very interesting, but the gorillas are starting to get extinct. They're getting extinct because some people are just killing them. They take their fur to get warm. One more thing, do not mess with gorillas. They can hurt you!
