    Or am i supposed to re-chew that little bit of sick that comes up after eating too much?
    Do Gorillas who don't eat meat but grow into large muscular animals have 4 stomachs? And they are fairly close cousins of ours.

        Nope, but actually they eat a variety of small animals, snails and catapillars and suchlike, and chimps who are even closer relatives eat a variety of birds and small mammals including other monkeys. You could argue that the eating of greater amounts of animal is one of the things that enabled us to out evolve these other primates.

        While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

          So why do we have inscisors and canines then?
          The vegetarian option.

            Gorillas eat insects. Chimanzees are more closely related to humans, and they eat monkeys, small birds and mammals as well as fruit and leaves.

                Slight difference between catching a animal yourself once in a while (they mainly eat not meat) and eating Industrial meat from animals pumped full of chemicals, enjoy your big mac.
