Gorillas are the largest member of the Ape family. Throughout Africa, they live in extended families called a troop led by a Silverback Male. Matured males are referred to as Silverbacks because the hair on their back develops a silver-grey characteristic at about 12 years of age; after sexual maturity at age 7. Troops spend their day foraging for fruits, leaves and various plants throughout their territory.
