infant?

is infant the proper term? Doesn't infant literally mean "unable to speak?" Aren't all gorillas infants?Hithisishal (talk) 03:38, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

'Infant' is indeed the proper term. While the LAtin root for the word does indeed mean "unable to speak", the English word does not have that meaning. See various dictionary entries for 'infant'. - UtherSRG (talk) 05:53, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The largest subspecies of the Gorilla

The Eastern Lowland Gorilla is slightly larger than the Mountain Gorilla and essential larger than the Western Lowland Gorilla. Full erectly a Silverback of the Eastern Lowland Gorilla would be roughly 6 feet 6 inches (2 m) tall, a Mountain Gorilla Silverback would be roughly 6 feet 3 inches (1,90 m) tall and a Silverback of the Western Lowland Gorilla would be until 5 feet 7 inches (1,70 m) tall. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.7.127.159 (talk) 15:47, 16 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
