About Gorillas and Chimpanzees

There are three subspecies of gorillas living in different parts of Africa. The differences between them are very slight. The chimpanzee is the mammal most like a human. Noisy and curious, intelligent and social, Chimpanzees fascinate humans and are favorites both in zoos and the wild.
