A 700lb or 900lb gorilla would be equally entitled to sleep wherever he wants to. Interestingly, the Wikipedia entry for Gorilla states that the average male gorilla weighs about 400lb, occasionally reaching 500lb in the wild. Only obese gorillas in captivity have attained weights of 600lb. So the number doesn't even seem to be related to gorilla biology (except that it is safely larger than any known gorilla, save King Kong).
Some records have shown that male gorillas can be as much as 600 lbs. Their canines can â¦grow up to 4 or 5 inches long. Female gorillas weigh from 190 lbs to 260 lbs, and are usually shorter than males by 3 inches.      Gorillas and humans are about the same size. Male gorillas are larger than females, and are usually around 1.7m (5 ft) tall.    A male gorilla can weigh 500 lbs or over and stand 6 ft tall on all fours.
