western silverback gorilla
The western gorilla (Gorilla gorilla) is a great ape and the most populous species of the genus Gorilla.
The western gorilla is slightly smaller, lighter, more slender and clearer dyed than its eastern cousin. The western lowland gorilla can be brown or greyish with a yellowish forehead. It also has an overhanging tip on its nose, which the eastern gorilla does not have. Males measure 160–170 cm (5.3-5.6 ft) and weigh 140–160 kg (308-352 lbs). Females measure 120–140 cm (4-4.6 ft) and weigh 60–80 kg (132-176 lbs). The western gorilla is the smaller species of the gorilla. The Cross River gorilla differs from the western lowland gorilla in both skull and tooth dimensions. It is also about 10–15 cm (4-6 in) taller and 20–35 kg (44-77 lbs) heavier, but still smaller and lighter than the mountain gorilla and the eastern lowland gorilla, latter the largest subspecies of the gorilla and the largest living primate.
Spectacled bear (Tremarctos ornatus)
Spectacled bear the only species of bears that lives in South America. It can be found in Venezuela, Columbia, Peru, Ecuador, Argentina and Bolivia. Spectacled bear inhabits cloud forests at high altitudes, but it can be seen in various other habitats (scrubland, grassland, humid and arid forests…) when it searches for food. Spectacled bear is threatened by habitat loss and by killing because of the fur, meat and body parts (used in traditional Asian medicine). Exact number of remaining spectacled bears in the wild is unknown, but it decreases rapidly. These animals are listed as vulnerable, which means that they could soon become endangered , they are omnivores that will eat rodents , birds , grass , berries and fruit . they weigh 240 lbs
