gorilla

The world's largest primate, western gorillas weigh up to 180 kg and inhabit the tropical and subtropical forests of equatorial Africa. Primarily herbivorous, living in family groups led by a silverback male who protects the troop and mediates social conflicts. Critically Endangered, with populations threatened by deforestation, poaching for bushmeat, and outbreaks of Ebola virus disease.

Lysobacter spongiicola is a Gram-negative, gliding bacterium first isolated from marine sponge tissue. It inhabits marine invertebrate hosts and associated reef environments. This chemoheterotrophic bacterium produces extracellular lytic enzymes that break down complex macromolecules including proteins and polysaccharides.
