   The short-haired gorilla lives in the hot, damp, tropical forests of western Africa, and the
    long-haired gorilla lives in the cooler air in the high mountains of central Africa.
    A gorilla’s arms are so long; they almost touch the ground, even when he is standing up!
    Some wild mountain gorillas weigh as much as you, your father, and your mother all
    weigh  together.
    At night the father gorilla sleeps on the ground. But the mother and the baby gorillas
