    So a silverback is a specific species of mountain gorilla that has a distinctive silver hair on its back after a certain age.

    Almost like I said silverback is a species

      Bald men are my favorite species. It gets me moist knowing that they can’t get me pregnant.

        Nah I’ll admit it

        I looked it up at first and the phrasings I kept seeing was “species of mountain gorilla” so I assumed that meant it was a specific species. Woke up to the downvotes so I looked a little deeper and found out I was wrong.

        Personally I blame Google for not being able to answer concise questions like “is a silverback gorilla a species” but it is what it is ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
