There are many ways but according to the researchers, a part of their research is  gorilla  poop! You may be asking why? Since there are groups with more than one silverback (potential fathers), they can’t always be sure who the father is. But when faeces pass through the intestinal tract, they pull somebody cells with them, and those cells contain the full genome of a particular  gorilla  individual. Therefore, researchers use the faecal samples as a genetic analysis to find out or be sure who the father is. Do Male Gorillas (Silverbacks) have Paternal Instincts?
