What is the term for a group of gorillas?

The term for a group of gorillas is a troop.

Gorillas are highly social great apes that usually live in stable troops led by a dominant adult male known as a silverback. A troop may include several females, their young, and sometimes younger males. The silverback helps protect the group, settles conflicts, chooses travel routes, and determines where the gorillas feed and sleep.

Troop composition is not fixed forever. Young males may leave their birth group and live alone or form “bachelor” groups before attracting females of their own. Females may also transfer between troops. If a silverback dies, the troop can disband, although some females and offspring may remain together until another male joins them.

“Pack” is more commonly associated with wolves and dogs, “herd” with grazing mammals, and “school” with fish. “Band” can also appear in descriptions of primate groups, but “troop” is the standard answer for gorillas in a general-audience quiz.
