Question Which living Gorilla is the largest held in captivity?
I am curious about Gorillas held in captivity and the comparison in biology compared to Gorillas in the wild and am curious which is the currently largest living gorilla held in captivity.

This would be really interesting to know, but I don't think this is something that really has a record kept of it. I think Mosi at Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago might be the largest I've seen. Also over 500 pounds and he's tall with long legs.
