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.Originally posted by russell View PostDo Gorillas who don't eat meat but grow into large muscular animals have 4 stomachs?

So why do we have inscisors and canines then?Originally posted by russell View PostNope, we have intestines ratio of a herbivore, same teeth, no claws. If we were carnivores we would be able to go out and kill an animal with out bare teeth and eat it all, brains, anus etc. Once you have done that come back and I agree with you that we were meant to eat meat.Comment

Gorillas eat insects. Chimanzees are more closely related to humans, and they eat monkeys, small birds and mammals as well as fruit and leaves.Originally posted by russell View PostDo Gorillas who don't eat meat but grow into large muscular animals have 4 stomachs?

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.Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostGorillas eat insects.
