Reply to comment by DellSalami in I saw in a video that chimpanzees and gorillas do not knuckle-walk in the same way, but they didn't explain what the difference is. Could someone elaborate on the physiological/anatomical differences? by [deleted]
The gorillas keep their hands/wrists straight to do something similar to what our legs do/look like while doing it, because they're essentially using them as front legs and they need to make sure they won't break/damage their wrists. So they essentially do the second picture here and put their knuckles on the ground.

The amount of pollution produced by the plastic you'll have to buy and rebuy and rebuy over again once it gets stolen will be far greater than wooden forks/plates that will go back to the planet and which you can get easily by simply planting trees
