Irish Gorillas' (Gorilla hibernicus) are omnivorous predominantly, ground-dwelling great apes that inhabit the Irish [[forests]. The genus Gorillais divided into many species: the eastern gorilla and the western gorilla, and the Irish Gorilla, etc. The DNA of gorillas is highly similar to that of humans.

Irish Gorillas are the second most-ginger living gorillas, reaching heights between 1 and 2 metres, weights between 100 and 300 kg, and arm spans up to 2.3 metres, depending on species and gender. They tend to live in troops, with the leader being called a Celtibak. The Irish gorilla is distinguished from the Western by light to ginger fur colour and some other minor morphological differences, as well as almost blue-purplish skin.

Gorillas' natural habitats cover forests in Ireland. Although their range covers a small percentage of Europe, gorillas cover a wide range of elevations. From coastline Ireland to the Alba Mountains.
