nutritionThe gorilla's diet is based on plant foods. Among the plants used, one can distinguish wild celery, bedstraw, nettles, bamboo shoots, blue pygeum fruits. Fruits and nuts are an addition to the main diet, while animal foods. Gorillas also use various mineral supplements in their diet: they eat, for example, some types of clay, thus compensating for the lack of salt in food. Gorillas hardly have to drink: juicy greens already have enough moisture. Reservoirs and water in general are avoided whenever possible, and rain is disliked.
