• Female dispersal and reproductive success in wild western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) (2003, unknown): “Doran and McNeilage (2001) highlight the specific role that bais might play in buffering potential foraging costs associated with patchily distributed herbaceous vegetation.”
• Dietary Variability of Mountain Gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Uganda (2004, background): “The dietary differences among gorilla species and subspecies are due mainly to the availability of fruit and fibrous foods ( Doran and McNeilage, 1998, 2001 ).”
• Ranging behavior of the mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei) in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Uganda: a test of the ecological constraints model (2005, background): “Recent studies have suggested that western gorillas may face greater constraints on group size than mountain gorillas due to less abundant herbaceous vegetation and a greater availability of fruit, which leads to a more frugivorous diet ( Doran and McNeilage 1998, 2001; Parnell 2002, Table 3).

• Home Range and Frugivory Patterns of Mountain Gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Uganda (2003, background): “Accordingly, the degree of frugivory influences the movement patterns and home range size for gorillas (Remis, 1997a; Doran and McNeilage, 2001).”
• Spinner dolphins in a remote Hawaiian atoll: social grouping and population structure (2005, background): “In western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla), the social pattern may vary between stable cohesive groups (similar to the grouping pattern of mountain gorillas, Gorilla gorilla beringei) and a more ‘‘chimpanzeelike’’ fission-fusion pattern, depending on the habitat type and amount of food re”
