Best Answer

The male eastern lowland gorilla is the largest at 5 ft 9 and 360 lbs.
Adult males are typically 300-400 lbs and just over 5 feet tall. Humans are often taller, and can grow larger than gorillas, but on average gorillas are more massive. they are also the rarest and most powerful apes. they inhabit the forests of Africa!!

How you you know when a male gorilla is an adult?

Well, for one they are huge when they are an adult, but in an adult male gorilla you would see signs of more aggressive behavior. More fighting would occur, more signs of testosterone would show and if you watched you would see the gorilla marking its territory more and keeping boundaries for their own home. They would be attentive to females and other males, while also they would be searching for a mate and trying to catch the females attention by showing off and supplying the female with gifts and food. The adult male gorilla might also be showing behavioral signs of wanting to create a pack or family or gorillas. Their own clan in a way!
