Gorillas Beat Disease With Diet
Ғылым және технология
Heart disease is the number one killer of male gorillas in North American zoos. A dietary experiment at a Cleveland zoo suggests sugar and starch play a role. After a 21-year-old gorilla named Brooks died of heart failure at Cleveland Metroparks Zoo in 2005, researchers took a hard look at how the animals' lifestyle affects their health.

It's really good to see people putting effort into saving a bit of the world when most just seem to want to take advantage of it.

It's also good to see people putting effort into making sure gorillas eat healthier...meanwhile , we advertise burger meals , carnival man eating contests , steroid injections, sabotage healthy food and go against people planting they own gardens etc...
They like the sugar frim FRUIT!!! So those Frankenstein biscuits you were giving them was the closest thing they were getting from their normal fruit diet. Leave them in the wild. They never get sick.

They don't eat tonnes of sugar even in the wild. The bulk of their daily diet is sugar free green leaves and sprouts
Nice research
Wouldn't mind eating romaine lettuce if I was a Gorilla. But you better give me more of those if I was a Gorilla.
Sugar in their diet, how disgusting.
I wish I could know what exactly was in those processed biscuits.

@ Fouch because these stupid azz humans build homes in the places that the animals lived :-( I know there is still places that they could go in the wild it’s just their place of living is getting smaller because of people like this in the videos
Well that's because the heart doesn't have to work in a cage that small
Zoos are horrible. Any wild animal should have a free expanse to live amongst. Keeping anything in a cage is so cruel
The best survival plan? Don't cut their homes to the ground and lock them in cages.
