Like most primates, gorillas have opposable thumbs on their hands but did you know that they have semi-opposable feet? Their big toe is placed lower and is longer than a human's big toe! The positioning makes their big toes more flexible which helps with grasping things and their climbing abilities! Here we have Umusaruro demonstrating this by holding his snack! #gorillafacts #mountaingorillas #nature #wildlifeconservation 📸: James Munyawera, The Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund | Dian Fossey Gorilla F

404K views · 28K reactions | Did you know that gorillas sleep in nests? Gorillas use different vegetation including leaves, parts of bushes and branches to form layers of bedding into a circular nest. Nest building usually takes around 5 minutes. Typically nests are used for nighttime but young gorillas will build nests during the day for rest. #gorillas #conservation #wildlife : Laban Kayitete | Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund | Facebook
